Synopsis

A tragedy only in the sense that the "Divinia Commedia" was a comedy, Vladimir Mayakovsky's "Vladimir Mayakovsky" makes no attempt to disguise the theme of the play, which is the celebration of his own poetic genius and apotheosis as the divine poet crowned with laurel leaves, ascending to heaven while intoning his own name.

He wrote, produced, and acted in its first performance when he was twenty.
