You're close. I like Maldoror (Uruguay/Paris) because several scenes take place near shorelines. Dali liked Port Lligat for this sort of thing

There are repeated scenes of the Bad Boy unreliable narrator doing bad things with a younger boy, which is topped off at the end. This leads me to a pet theory that Ducasse mistreated a boy during his later teen boarding school years, and worked that into his thing. Suddenly I wonder on scholarly research on this point; it is impossible that I'm the only one who's noticed.

The Secret Life of Salvador Dalí. I read it a long time ago but remember liking his writing more than his painting. It's supposed to be an autobiography but a lot of it, especially the scenes of his childhood, is pure mythmaking, and draws up the same oneiric imagery.
