Vladimir Mayakovsky - Good! The October Poem

  • 15 years ago
Part 4 of the famous October poem, Good, by the Russian poet Vladimir Mayakovsky, is a parody of Eugene Onegin by Alexander Pushkin. Mayakovsky revisits the conversation between Tatiana Larina and her nurse and represents it as a conversation between two figures on the Russian political and social scene in the early 20th c., shortly before the October Revolution: Kuskova and Milyukov.

The recording is produced for Los Cuadernos de Julia blog, and the text is narrated by the blog's author, Julie Delvaux.
