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.

Enpä kehuisi; tylsähkö, tappelua, huijaamista, varastamista, juopottelua ja yleensäkin rahvaan sivistymätöntä käytöstä ja elämää. Luonnosta muutamia hyviä kuvauksia. Kuvaa kyllä hyvin rahvaan, venäläisten, elämää.

"Suru on lähempänä näiden miesten sielua kuin ilo! ...ryntää kaikkien kimppuun, repii,raastaa, hävittäää..."
