The publication includes 3 texts of Nikolay Aseev: two short novels “About human condolence” (1918) and “The pointless story” (1919), and the
article “Name exchange” (1920). They were published once in the unpopular and hard-to-get magazines “The Great Оcean”, “Bellower”, “Creativity” and
never again, – like many other Aseev’s works, written in the Far Eastern period.
However, they represent the groundbreaking poetics, its basics were laid in the
age of “Centrifuge”, which the poet dishonored, assumed the mantle of
“the back-seat role by Mayakovskiy” (M. L. Gasparov).
The short novel “About human condolence” incorporated the traumatic experience of the witness and the party involved in the civil war, the article “Name
exchange” and “The pointless story” contains the detailed reflections, related to
crisis events in language and literature.
The publication is provided with the opening clause with the summary about
N. Aseev and the Far Eastern period of his novelism (late 1917 – January 1922).
There are also some contexts reviewed, crucial for comprehension of the published works. “The pointless story” and “Name exchange” are compared to dissertations, articles and essays of V. Khlebnikov, S. Esenin, O. Mandelstam,
