Janet Flanner & Ernest Hemingway, Café aux Deux-Magots, 6 Place Saint-Germain des Prés.
From page 347: On the edges of her group, [Stuyvesant] found someone who had been talking to someone who had seen Man Ray and his fiery new girl-assistant, going to the Lilas, or was it the Deux Magots?
Janet Flanner—who wrote a bimonthly column for Americans as Genet—said, “The Surrealists had their own table facing the door of the Deux Magots…” I find the idea of an official Surrealist table fascinating. Did it possess two and a half legs, perhaps? Was there a goat’s head emerging from the center? Or was the table in fact not a table at all, merely chairs in a circle?
