Maxim Gorky: His Life and Writings (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Maxim Gorky: His Life and Writings

Viewed from a certain angle Of vision, his life is as entertaining, though by no means as poetical, as a fairy story the ups and downs of his desperate struggle for mere existence, as contrasted With the perfect ease with which, on emerging from the subterranean depths, he swept everything before him, winning world wide fame, and taking the commanding heights Of literature by storm, have, in truth, more of bewildering mystery and of palpitating interest than the vicissitudes undergone by the most heroic figure in the long procession of strong-willed vagrants whom he has caused to defile before our eyes.
