| A memoir of the â last Surrealist,â Marianne Ivsic. Alain Segura documents their initial meeting in 1967, amid the heady militancy of May â 68. Alain Segura was a teenage anarchist in Paris during the mid-to-late 1960s when he hung around with members of the Enragés and the Situationist International. He was particularly captivated by Yugoslavian militant, poet, and painter Marianne Ivsic, a member of André Bretonâ s Surrealist group. It was Guy Debord who approvingly called her â the last surrealist.â Segura wrote this book so that Ivsicâ s life and creative legacy are not forgotten. A Season with Marianne details the heady days of friendship, rebellion, and creative militancy surrounding May â 68, against the backdrop of a colossal split between the Anarchist International and the Situationists in 1967, and the impossible demands of a revolution briefly glimpsed by the author through an encounter with the last surrealist. |
