In Montparnasse between the wars, Kiki, 'Queen of Montparnasse', danced and sang; Prévert created Baptiste there; Desnos travelled astrally, then woke to harvest the crop; painters - Kisling, Pascin, Foujita, Modigliani, Derain and others - laboured and partied there; Bronia came from Holland, destined to meet Radiguet, Cocteau's Boy Wonder; later she would marry René Clair; Satie opened umbrellas there, always hoping for rain.
