“Another fateful encounter occurred on the night of May 29, 1934. Breton met an unknown woman with hair like ‘bright rain on a flowering chestnut tree.’ They took a long night stroll through the narrow alleys of Les Halles. A few days later, Breton realized that the circumstances of this encounter appeared in his poem of automatic writing, ‘The Night of the Sunflower,’ written on August 26, 1923. After closely examining each of the 31 lines of ‘The Night of the Sunflower,’ Breton concluded that the entire poem from 1923 was ‘foretelling that something very significant would happen to me in 1934.’” Georges Sebbag, Le surréalisme, trans.
