THE BLACK BOUGHS
By Simon Liberati

When his father, the surrealist poet André Liberati, suffers a bout of delirium, the writer Simon Liberati explores his paternal inheritance.

André Liberati chose as his son's godfather the poet Aragon, who wrote alongside Nerval, Breton, Capote and Eliot. The author describes wonderful days from his childhood, his father's very unusual presence, the haunting silent face of a brother who died at the age of one, the internal fire he experiences when writing. When you are Aragon's godson, and when you've seen at close quarter's the complex relationship between Breton and your father, you know that writing is about commitment and drive. What is creativity? What is the mysterious process of inspiration, in prose and poetry? A captivating self-portrait.


Simon Liberati is the author of five books, including Anthologie des apparitions (2004) and Jayne Mansfield 1967, winner of the 2011 Prix Femina. In 2015, Stock published his Eva which sold 30,000 copies in hardcover.
