Dnevnik Vat͡s︡lava Nizhinskogo

In December 1917, the renowned dancer Vaslav Nijinsky began a diary while living in a Swiss villa, documenting his descent into psychosis. This edition presents the first complete English translation of his raw, on-the-spot account, including the previously unpublished fourth notebook. It offers a rare glimpse into the mind of a major artist grappling with mental illness, filled with his final lucid thoughts on profound subjects like God, sex, war, and his own fractured existence.
