Zheleznaia Doroga [The Railway].
Leningrad, Gosudarstvennoe izdatel'stvo, 1929
In typical Soviet fashion the book romanticises the strength of the railway to transport people across the fields, valleys, and steppes whatever the weather. The train engineer looks remarkably like Daniil Kharms who as well as being a close friend of Vvedenskiy was also Poret's lover.
