An activist, revolutionary, dandy, thug, butler, and homeless man—Eduard Limonov was a fiery and belligerent poet, a political agitator, and the novelist of his own greatness. His life, like a trail of sulfur, spans the bustling streets of Moscow, the skyscrapers of New York, the alleys of Paris, and the prisons of Siberia during the second half of the 20th century.
