256 pages, [16] pages of plates : illustrations ; 21 cm. "Luis Bunuel lived many lives - surrealist, Spanish Civil War propagandist, hedonist, friend of artists and poets, and filmmaker. With surprising candor and wit, Bunuel offers his sometimes scathing opinions on the literati and avante-garde members of his sweeping social circle, including Pablo Picasso, Jorge Luis Borges, Salvador Dali, and Federico Garcia Lorca. These colorful stories of his nomadic life reveal a man of stunning imagination and influence."--BOOK JACKET. • 1. Memory • 2. Remembrances from the Middle Ages • 3. The drums of Calanda • 4.
