"I am a Phenomenon Quite Out of the Ordinary"

Meer over het boek

The diaries and notebooks of Daniil Kharms offer a rare glimpse into the daily life and challenges faced by a key figure of the literary avant-garde in Post-Revolutionary Leningrad. These writings, recently published in Russian, enhance the understanding of Kharms beyond his translated prose and poetry. They serve as an invaluable resource for English-speaking readers interested in the personal experiences and historical context of a writer navigating the complexities of early Soviet power.
