Media Reviews

"This is the artist's most evocative and moving work. It surrealistically probes a child becoming a woman in Babylon where her father elopes with a cousin, the chambermaid runs off with an then kills the gardener, and her grandmother seduces her mother's new fiancé. This is a landmark of Surrealist literature."
