Collage novel

A collage novel is a form of artist's book approaching closely (but preceding) the graphic novel. Images are selected from other publications and collaged together following a theme or narrative (not necessarily linear).

Surrealism

The Dadaist and Surrealist Max Ernst is generally credited with inventing the collage novel, employing nineteenth-century engravings cut and pasted together to create new images. His works include Les Malheurs des immortels (1922), La Femme 100 Têtes (1929), Rêve d'une petite fille... (1930) and Une Semaine de Bonté (1933–1934). The text for Les Malheurs des immortels was written by Paul Éluard.

Georges Hugnet was the author of the collage novel Le septième face du dé (1936).[1]

gollark: It would be better to teach transferable stuff like "actually reading safety manuals".
gollark: You can't just teach safety of every random technological thing in school.
gollark: I feel like if someone won't let you cut it they also won't let you burn bits or set it on fire.
gollark: Wouldn't setting the tree on fire or something be bad?
