ARAGON (Louis). Persecuted Persecutor. Paris, Éditions surréalistes, 1931. In-4, 83 pp., [2] ff., [1] f. errata. Red half-shagreen with a band, red marbled paper covers, title and date in palladium on the spine, original red printed covers preserved (GG [Grégory Gobillot]). One of 100 non-commercial copies printed on green paper. Rare on this paper. Complete with errata. This volume contains the poems “Front rouge” and "Prélude au temps de cerises," featuring the famous line "Vive le GUEPEOU," which led to Aragon’s definitive break with the Surrealists and his unconditional adherence to the tenets of the Communist Party, of which he had been a member since 1927. A very fine copy.
