Today I Wrote Nothing by Daniil Kharms

A comprehensive English-language translation of forefront prose and poetry by the late eminent Soviet absurdist offers insight into his inspiration by Futurist writers and the views that led to his suppression, incarceration, and death, in a volume that includes the acclaimed novella, "The Old Woman" and the short prose sequence, "Events."
Daniil Kharms (1905-1942) was born in St. Petersburg and grew up amidst the Bolshevik revolution. As a young man, he became well known, along with other writers in the OBERIU movement he founded, as an eccentric poet and performer of the early Soviet literary scene. He died of starvation incarcerated by the state on suspicion of Anti-Soviet activities. Matvei Yankelevich is a founding editor of Ugly Duckling Press. His translations and writings have appeared in numerous publications and anthologies. He teaches at Hunter College in New York City.
