"what a poet and the clear water is thick with bloody blows on its
head. I embraced a cloud But when I soared it rained." -Frank
O'Hara, "Mayakovsky" (1954) Mayakovsky's is one of the most
compelling voices in twentieth-century Russian poetry. Born in
1893, he joined the Futurist movement in 1912 and soon established
himself as one of Russia's major poets. In 1917, he rallied to the
Russian Revolution and remained the indisputable leader of its
artistic avant-garde until his suicide in 1930. Many of the poems
in this book are translated for the first time into English.
Accompanying the poems are rare drawings and lithographs by
Mayakovsky and his circle, found in private collections of futurist
books.
