Fun read if you're into Russian literature and culture
Fun read if you're into Russian literature and culture, and having both languages is key for a language major like myself. Not a perfect translation it seems, so far, and the location aspect gets frustrating at times, but overall a great way to have this book

Great edition of Pro Eto
The reproductions of Rodchenko's images are exceptionally well done in this edition. My only issue is that the translation is often unfaithful to Mayakovsky's poem. Mayakovsky is particularly difficult to translate, so it is no surprise, but there are glaringly strange choices made in this translation which alter the meaning of certain lines significantly.
