He arrived in Paris in 1925, where he met André Breton, Louis Aragon and Benjamin Péret. He published one text in the publication La Révolution surréaliste. In 1928, he created with Arthur Adamov and Claude Sernet the magazine Discontinuité which will have only one issue and participated in issues two and three of the Grand Jeu magazine.
Paulette Grobermann (1903-1995), wife of Armand Lanzmann (both parents of Claude Lanzmann and Jacques Lanzmann), left her husband for the love of Monny de Boully.[1]
In 1943, Jean Rousselot saved Monny de Boully and his wife Paulette, arrested by the Gestapo.
