Wiktor Woroszylski presents a richly detailed and vividly human portrait of a man who was at once a passionate propagandist for Bolshevism and a deeply tormented, restless soul — a contradiction that would ultimately consume him. Drawing on letters, memoirs, and contemporary accounts, the biography reconstructs Mayakovsky's creative genius, his fierce romantic entanglements, and his fraught relationship with the Soviet state. Written with scholarly rigour yet flowing with narrative energy, this account stands as an indispensable study of one of the twentieth century's most electrifying poetic voices.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956289712347,"sku":"2026100008449-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/dd2b2a52-8b0d-4834-bf19-7a52d394b7fd.png?v=1783499385","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100008449-secondhand-the-life-of-mayakovsky","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
