"Nadja" is a reflection of surrealist thought and is characterized by his innovative speech.
Reading " The Manifeste of Surrealism " by André Breton is a good introduction to discover this master of Surrealism.

The surreal text claim a special status: its priority is not literary but experimental. The desire of André Breton, when he wrote the story which gives the title of "Nadja", is to share with readers, including his surrealists's friends, like a witness over a period of its existence that has been crossed by wonderful episodes.

The surreal text is intended to contaminate the experience of the readers, which are called upon to test themself the limits of logic, and introduce doubt in the representation of their own future.]]>
