There's a rather lovely Tom Stoppard play [0] that centers on the fact that James Joyce, Tristan Zara and Lenin all lived in Zurich in 1917. It's been a long time since I saw it, but I approximately recall a line were one of the characters tells [noted Dada-ist] Zara to sober up with the words "You want multicoloured micturition? Go to Moscow. They'll make you piss blood there!"
