The Fatal shot that was heard, leaving room at the Lubyanka, the last affection of the poet - Veronika Polonskaya, was made on 14 April 1930…

the death of MayakovskyThe Death of Mayakovsky in the thirty-seventh year of life has prompted many questions among his contemporaries. Why voluntarily left the life of a genius, beloved by the people and the Soviet government “the singer of the revolution”?

What happened is suicide, no doubt. The results of the examination conducted by the forensic 60 years after the poet's death, confirmed that Mayakovsky shot himself. Handwriting examination has established the authenticity of the suicide letter written two days earlier. The fact that the note was prepared in advance, spoke in favor of the deliberations of this act.

When three years earlier died Yesenin, Mayakovsky writes: “In this life to die is not difficult.
to Make life much more difficult”. These lines he puts bitter words to escape from reality via suicide. On his own death, he writes: “…this is not the way...but I have output no”.

We will never know the exact answer to the question that so badly broke poet. But voluntary death of Mayakovsky can be partly explained by the events preceding his death. Partly the choice of the poet reveals his work. Famous lines from the poem “Person”, written in 1917: “A heart rushes to fire, and the throat raves razor…”, speak for themselves.

In General, the poetry of Mayakovsky – mirror his nervous contradictory nature. His poems are full or almost teenage delight and enthusiasm, or the bile and bitterness of disappointment. So Vladimir Mayakovsky described and contemporaries. The same Veronica Polonskaya, the main witness to the suicide of the poet, in his memoirs, writes: “in General he has always been extreme. I don't remember Mayakovsky... quiet…”.

poetry of MayakovskyReason to fail the last line the poet was set. Married Lily Brik, the main love and Muse of Mayakovsky, all my life was approaching and moving away from him, but never belonged to him entirely. Long before the tragedy the poet has twice flirted with his fate, and the reason for that was a comprehensive passion for this woman. But then Mayakovsky, whose death is still worried minds alive – the gun misfired.

The Outbreak of serious health problems due to exhaustion and severe flu, a resounding failure of the play "Bath" in March 1930, parting with Tatiana Yakovleva, which the poet had asked to become his wife… All of these life conflict, indeed, blow by blow if ready to the death of Mayakovsky. Kneeling in front of Veronica Polonskaya, persuading her to stay with him, the poet was clinging to a relationship with her as a life-saving straw. But the actress was not ready for such a drastic step as a divorce with her husband… When she'd closed the door, a revolver with a single bullet in the chamber put an end to the life of one of the greatest poets.
