Little Girl Dreams of Taking the Veil

The second of the great Surrealist''s collage novels, this hallucinatory vision centers on the nightmares of a girl who loses her virginity on the day of her first communion and resolves to become a nun. Max Ernst''s profoundly bizarre work, first published in Paris in 1930, blends humor and irony in its unforgettable expression of religious ecstasy and carnal desire.
