Mayakovsky: I'm going to surprise! The poet's march through the country and the world
14.99 €
Traveling was an integral part of Vladimir Mayakovsky's life. The poet himself wrote: "Poetry is all about traveling to the unknown," "I need to travel." The most important events took place during his travels, and the impressions from them were recorded in poems and other works. Do you want to get to know the poet's close circle of friends and take a walk through the favorite places of European artistic circles? Find out about the performances of futurists in different cities of Russia? Visit Mexico and America with Mayakovsky? This book is a geography of the poet's travels: it describes not only Mayakovsky's routes, but also the cities he visited. The addresses of hotels, theaters, cafes, salons, and publishing houses mentioned are accompanied by modern names and landmarks, so that if you wish, you can take more than just a virtual trip. QR codes lead to additional materials and maps of cities where the poet either visited more than once or they played a significant role in his biography and work. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations - photographs, portraits of heroes, touching and often discouraging notes from the public, postcards, posters - all of this recreates the turbulent creative atmosphere of the early twentieth century.
