« Le Meneur de lune, c'est un portrait fabuleux du poète obtenu par la simple relation des événements magiques qui ont tramé sa vie : le seul portrait de lui, disait-il, qui fût ressemblant. C'est aussi une anthologie des faits divers surprenants qui le frappaient comme autant de signes de son peu de réalité, mais l'assuraient en même temps de son appartenance à l'ordre incompréhensible, à la fois irrationnel et suprêmement existant, sur lequel il croyait que l'univers était fondé. » René Nelli (1906-1982)

Bousquet was born in Narbonne.
Wounded on 27 May 1918 at Vailly near the Aisne battlelines at the end of the First World War, he was paralysed for the rest of his life, and lived a life largely bedridden, surrounded by his books His physical incapacity and constant pain (for which he took opium) caused a retreat from the world, but also became the starting point for an extensive body of poetry and writing. He died in Carcassonne, and his home there is now a museum in his memory.
Bousquet became friends with the surrealists, and his poetry is often associated with them.
He also purchased paintings by Salvador Dalí, Max Ernst, Jean Fautrier, Wols, André Masson and Hans Bellmer, and was modeled by René Iché and painted by Jean Dubuffet.
