LEIRIA (Mário Henrique). IMAGEM Devolvida: poema-mito. Lisboa. 1974. - LEIRIA (Mário Henrique) IMAGEM Devolvida: poema-mito . Autor: Mário Henrique Leiria; Ilustrações Cruzeiro Seixas; Nota: Mário Cesariny de Vasconcelos. Lisboa: Plátano Editora, 1974. 24 pp.: il.; 100x290 mm. - (Colecção Imagens, 2) First edition. Work by one of the most emblematic figures of Portuguese Surrealism. Author of a scarce and unique body of work: he published only four books, all in the 1970s, with the rest scattered across magazines and newspapers, or still unpublished. “His literary work is almost entirely composed of poems and short texts that narrate unusual events, with a rather sui generis style” (cf. Surrealism in Portugal , p. 230). Very rare. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
