The text was written entirely in English and printed on green glossy paper. At the beginning is the black reproduction of the Birth of Venus reinterpreted by the artist. Bends. Joint : - We don't ear it that way. [Paris, 1960]. - Tract written in French and English, signed by Robert Benayoun, André Breton, E. L. T.
