Londoners Melly and Woods have combined their talents not only to demonstrate why Surrealism had its inception in Paris but to cite evidence that "its marvelous phantom still haunts the city of its birth." They trace the steps of the Surrealist writers and artists, touring the cafes, passageways, shop windows, and sculptural adornments that grace Paris and sparked the Surrealist imagination.
