Synopsis

Special facsimile copy of the typeset version of the Surrealist photo book The Road is Wider than Long by Roland Penrose.

Written as a Surrealist love poem, the inspiration for the book is drawn from a journey that Roland Penrose made together with renowned photographer and war correspondent Lee Miller through the Balkans in 1938. This book is made as a replica of the first copy that Roland printed in 1939 using different fonts and then embellished with imaginative colour illustrations for Lee Miller.
