About the Author

Salvador Dali (1904-1989) was a Spanish surrealist painter renowned for his striking, bizarre painting style that drew deeply on his explorations of the subconscious. He was strongly influenced by the writings of Sigmund Freud, as well as the Paris Surrealists who sought to establish the "greater reality" of the human subconscious over reason. Some of his most famous works include The Persistence of Memory, and the two Surrealist films Un Chien andalou (The Andalusian Dog) and L'Age d'or (The Golden Age), made with the Spanish director Luis Bunuel. Hidden Faces is his only novel, and was first published in 1944.
