Edited by his muse and collaborator Lili Brik along with the philosopher Ivan Luppol, the text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of Mayakovsky’s \"stepped\" verse and avant-garde dramaturgy, including the arrangement of his poems, plays, and satirical drawings from 1912 to 1930. The first volume captures the futurist fire of the pre-revolutionary and Civil War years (1912–1921), featuring Mayakovsky’s own original drawings for \"The Tale of a Deserter\" and a reproduction of the poster for the first performance of his revolutionary play Mystery-Bouffe.\u003cbr\u003eThe second and third volumes document the poet’s mature Soviet years (1921–1927), enriched by rare archival materials. These include a 1924 photograph, a page from the journal Krasnaya Niva featuring his illustrations for \"The Tropics,\" and a 1927 portrait taken in Prague. Bibliophiles will particularly appreciate the inclusion of an autograph of the poem \"Marxism is a Weapon,\" along with various drawings found in his personal letters and his illustrations for \"Leo Tolstoy and Vanya Dyldin.\" The set also features several reproductions of performance posters from 1926–1927, including the announcement for his poem Khorosho! (It's Good!).\u003cbr\u003eThe physical identity of the set is defined by the design of Nikolai Denisovsky, a close friend of the poet and a veteran of the ROSTA Windows collective, ensuring an aesthetic that honors Mayakovsky's bold graphic sensibilities. The fourth volume concludes the collection with his final works from 1928–1930, completing a comprehensive survey of his evolution from a cubofuturist rebel to a state-recognized icon of Soviet literature. Published by Khudozhestvennaya Literatura in a portable pocket-sized format, this edition was designed for high readability, yet it remains a primary scholarly resource due to its intimate editorial provenance. For bibliophiles, collectors of the avant-garde, and historians of Soviet culture, this 1936 Moscow imprint is a vital primary source, documenting the systematic canonization of Mayakovsky’s work by those who were closest to his creative heart.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43963107147818,"sku":"EB-306384018985","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_79ecaae8-4f4a-42af-ac89-f4bc09674476.jpg?v=1768161158","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/mayakovsky-collected-works-1936-%d0%bc%d0%b0%d1%8f%d0%ba%d0%be%d0%b2%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b8%d0%b9-%d1%81%d0%be%d0%b1%d1%80%d0%b0%d0%bd%d0%b8%d0%b5-%d1%81%d0%be%d1%87%d0%b8%d0%bd%d0%b5%d0%bd%d0%b8%d0%b9-%d0%b2-4-%d1%82-%d0%b1%d1%80%d0%b8%d0%ba","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
