Om denne e-boken

(Excerpt): "There are many solitary graves amid the woods of Kerschentz; within them moulder the bones of old men, men of an ancient piety, and of one of these old men, Antipa, this tale is told in the villages of Kerschentz."

Om forfatteren

Maxim Gorky, born Alexei Maximovich Peshkov in 1868, emerged as a towering figure in Russian literature and political activism. Orphaned at an early age, Gorky's tumultuous childhood and subsequent years as a wanderer deeply influenced his writing, imbuing it with a raw, unfiltered portrayal of the human condition. His pseudonym, "Gorky," meaning "bitter," reflects the harsh realities he often depicted.Gorky's literary career began in the 1890s, and he quickly gained acclaim for his short stories and plays that highlighted the plight of the underprivileged. His works are celebrated for their vivid characterizations and social critique, making him a central figure in the Russian Realist movement. Gorky's friendships with literary giants like Anton Chekhov and Leo Tolstoy further cemented his status in the literary world.A fervent supporter of the Bolshevik Revolution, Gorky's political activism was as influential as his literary contributions. He used his platform to advocate for social justice and workers' rights, often clashing with the Tsarist regime. However, his relationship with the Soviet government was complex; while initially supportive, he later criticized the oppressive measures of Lenin and Stalin, leading to periods of tension and exile.Gorky's legacy extends beyond his literary achievements; he was instrumental in shaping Soviet literature and culture. His revolutionary ideas and commitment to social change inspired countless contemporary writers and activists. Despite controversies and political strife, Gorky remains a symbol of resilience and a voice for the marginalized, making his life and work profoundly relevant to modern readers.
