"This is the first full-length study of a neglected chapter in literary history - the surrealist movement in England and its impact on English literature in the 1930's and 1940's. After presenting a systematic account of surrealist doctrine as put forth by its founder, André Breton, Mr. Ray deals with the unique manifestation of the movement in England."
