writer, offers a harrowing account of the “bizarre adventure of being a man”
that draws upon his experience, in 1928, of being diagnosed with tuberculosis
of the spine. He was treated in various sanatoria in France, Switzerland and
Romania, but to no avail. Engagement with existentialist philosophy led to an
interest in Surrealism. Without joining any particular grouping he corresponded
with, among others, Geo Bogza, Mihail Sebastian, André Breton, André Gide,
Martin Heidegger and Ilarie Voronca, and sporadically collaborated with the
Paris-based magazines Le Surréalisme au service de la révolution and Les
Feuillets inutiles.ver menos
