About the author

Russian writer Aleksei Maksimovich Peshkov (Russian: Алексей Максимович Пешков) supported the Bolshevik revolution of 1917 and helped to develop socialist realism as the officially accepted literary aesthetic; his works include The Life of Klim Samgin (1927-1936), an unfinished cycle of novels.

This Soviet author founded the socialist realism literary method and a political activist. People also nominated him five times for the Nobel Prize in literature. From 1906 to 1913 and from 1921 to 1929, he lived abroad, mostly in Capri, Italy; after his return to the Soviet Union, he accepted the cultural policies of the time.

Reviews

[Mariya]

It was so amazing and also diffrent , cause in opposite of other subjects it emphasize on bad habits .. and it absorbed me much .
This book has few short stories that most of them are through kids and miserably ..
Most of them are rubber and take others money or stuffs and the story tells about other people behaviour with those kids ...

این که واسه ما ۴۷ سال تو زندانیم

[Janith Pathirage]

I don't think anybody can survive this story without a heartbreak. The tragic story of a wrongly convicted prisoner. You cant help putting yourself in the prisoner's position. I'm surprised how a story like this could go under the radar without generating much of a public attention. Glad I could unearth this hidden gem.
