"Sityzens, paynt yerselvz and yer wifs and childrin!" An aesthetic explosion from one of the leading voices in the Polish futurism/surrealism movement. Manifestos about destructively artistic living alongside bizarre/visceral and heartfelt fictions about the changing of the world (1915 - 1925) and how his changes people on the inside/outside and their relationships. I LOVE this book and author! Also read his novel I Burn Paris if you get the chance!
