Hmm.... What a strange statement. It's too oversimplified, at least. To me, "Majakovski" and "had to adapt" sound incompatible together. Probably politics was the last thing that interested him in his life. As for his suicide, it's one of Russian mysteries of XX century. Actually, no one knows if he really did it himself. There is a version that it was a murder. However, the motive could be his unhappy love and other "everyday life" troubles (I'm afraid it's bad translation for what I am trying to say, but I can't express it better). Everything is more difficult, like any human life, actually.Originally Posted by Johanna
Nowadays, it is not true, unfortunately.Practically everybody appreciates, or even writes poetry... Something like that...
P.S. I totally agree with translationsnmru.
