The Exploits of Engelbrecht: Abstracted from the Chronicles of the Surrealist Sportsman's Club
'Fifteen stories that relate the activities of the Surrealist Sportsman's Club, a society with very dubious morals that spends the time it has left between the collapse of the moon and the end of the universe taking the concept of the 'game' to its logical limit.'
'The Exploits of Engelbrecht is English surrealism at its greatest. Witty and fantastical, Maurice Richardson was light years ahead of his time. Unmissable.' - J.G. Ballard
London: Phoenix House Limited, 1950. First edition. Hardcover. 128pp. Illustrated by James Boswell. Light wear to jacket with some loss to the rear and the edges, corners rubbed, text clean, a very good copy.
