Pierre Unik (January 5, 1909 in Paris–February 27, 1945 in Pomezní Boudy) was a French surrealist poet, screenwriter and journalist.[1]

Surrealism

Unik published his first Surrealist text in the sixth issue of La Révolution surréaliste.[2] He participated in ten of the twelve known surrealist sex investigations,[3] and claimed to have lost his virginity in a brothel, between the ages of fifteen and sixteen.[4]

Disappearance

Unik was captured in a prisoner of war camp in Silesia in 1940.[2] Escaping in 1945, he never made it back to France, disappearing in Slovakia.[2]
