Diary of a Genius

This classic text stands as one of the seminal works of Surrealism, revealing the most astonishing and intimate workings of the mind of Salvador Dali, the eccentric polymath genius who became the living embodiment of the 20th's century most intensely subversive, disturbing and influential art movement. This volume covers his life from 1952 to 1963 and includes a brilliant and revelatory essay on Dali, and the importance of his art to the 20th century, by acclaimed author JG Ballard.
