Daniil Harms' (Даниил Хармс, 1905–1942) selection of poetry is the second edition of Neputns Publishers in the new poetry series, which introduces the works of modernist and contemporary poets from different countries.
When you hold a book, you have a rough idea of what awaits you. You know how to write the words, what they mean, you assume that the literary work has a protagonist and plot. But in the case of Daniil Harms, nothing is quite so. He changes everything.
Literary scholar Alexander Zapol
Although the name of Daniil Harms is widely known, this is the first edition of Harms’ poetry for adults published in Latvian.
