Elementary Morality by Raymond Queneau

Features poems written by a surrealist, translated into English from the original French.

Raymond Queneau(1903-76) was born at Le Havre in 1903, where he was educated before studying at the Sorbonne in Paris. Between 1924 and 1929 Queneau was active in the surrealist movement and composed its manifesto, Permettez!. Queneau collaborated with a number of Nouvelle Vague film directors, most successfully with Louis Malle's 1960 adaptation of his novel Zazie dans le metro. Also, Juliette Greco made popular his song 'Si tu t'imagines.' In 1951 Queneau was elected to the Goncourt Academy. He died on October 26, 1976. Philip Terry studied at Leeds and took his PhD at Sussex University. He is currently a lecturer in creative writing and twentieth century poetry at Essex University. He is the author of Aesopocrypha (1996), a lipogrammatic novel The Book of Bachelors (1999), and editor of the short fiction collection Ovid Metamorphosed (2000). His first collection of poetry, Oulipoems, will be published in 2007.
