ousIy wounded and delirious, by a
Red Army transport in the autumn
of 1919. He is sent to Moscow,
RECEIVERS and in the summer re-
turns to the front. He fights
through the civil wars and then
re-enters the School of Architec-
ture in Moscow, where he had
previously been a student. He
works feverishly, brooding about
the wonderful cities he will build
on the ruins of the past, until he
finally suffers a nervous break
down. Buzheninov decides to go
home to recuperate. Two days
before his departure, he attends
a party and in a moment of unu-
sual excitement relates a fantas-
tic tale about the year 202z, de-
scribing the wonders of the new
Moscow, the city that had been
built according to his plans.
Riding on the train to his home
Buzhenjnov rc-reads letter he
received a few days before from
