This book is the first critical attempt made in any language to
re-examine the entire oeuvre of Bruno Jasie ski (1901-1938). It
takes into account the writer's lifelong concerns but places them
in the context of the universal value of his writing, generated by
his modernist passions and his fascination with the grotesque - an
artistic device that was consonant with his need to portray life in
all its complexities. The author relies on the grotesque as an
element that unifies Jasie ski's futuristic poetry with his prose.
Especially important in this regard is the close reading of Jasie
ski's satiric grotesques written in the Soviet Union. The author
does not avoid the intricacies and difficult questions of Jasie
ski's ideological commitment but focuses mainly on the consequences
that the highly ambivalent and ambiguous nature of the grotesque
has on the interpretation of his work.
