Daniil Kharms. A Man's Life in the Wind

Daniil Kharms (Yuvachev; 1905–1942) is one of the key figures of domestic literature of the last century, a leading representative of Russian and world avant-garde of the 1920s–1930s, a famous children's writer, a man whose appearance and lifestyle gave rise... to legends and anecdotes. The biography of D. Kharms is based on his own diaries and records, memories of those close to him, as well as archival materials and contains a number of new facts concerning the writer and his family. The heroes of the book are Kharms's associates in OBERIU (“Association for Real Art”) — Alexander Vvedensky, Nikolai Oleinikov, and Nikolai Zabolotsky, and his intellectual interlocutors — philosophers Yakov Druskin and Leonid Lipavsky. Among more than two hundred illustrations are reproductions of drawings, photographs of Kharms and his contemporaries. Many unique documents have been published for the first time by Valery Shubinsky.
