linuskramshoej's review against another edition
3.25
Very abstract but good, 1 & 3 poems are incredible, while 2 not as much. Also includes some incredible collage/paintings.
spacestationtrustfund's review against another edition
1.0
This is not a good translation. The determination to preserve some semblance of rhyme means much of Mayakovsky's more daring and deliberate phrasing is entirely lost, which does the poetry a great disservice. This is the only English translation of Про это I've read, so I don't know if there are any better versions available, but I wouldn't recommend this one.
