麻豆约拍

Sue Roe charts the birth of Surrealism in this racy, rackety Paris quartier.

Featured are the lives of famous artists and writers such as Jean Cocteau, Andre Breton, Louis Aragon, and later Salvador Dali, who all gravitated to this place of bars, galleries and nightclubs.

Omnibus of five parts abridged by Katrin Williams.

Read by Tracy Ann Oberman.

Producer: Duncan Minshull

First broadcast on 麻豆约拍 Radio 4 in June 2018.
