Aleksey Peshkov overcame indigence, violence, and suicidal despair to become Maksim Gorky, one of the most widely read and influential writers of the twentieth century. Childhood, the first book in Gorky's acclaimed autobiographical trilogy, depicts his early years, when after his father's death he was taken to live in the home of his maternal grandfather, a violent and vindictive man who both provided the child with a rudimentary education and subjected him to savage beatings.

Mother is a fictionalized account of a demonstration by factory workers near Nizhni Novgorod in 1902. The narrative focuses on the characters and their evolving social consciousnesses. The "mother" is Pelageya Nilovna, widow of a boorish factory worker. Her son, Pavel Vlassov, is the leader of a Social Democratic circle among the workers. The book describes the mother's increasing affinity with the ideology of her son and the radical group which gathers at their house.

Román o povolžském - lze říci ruském kupectvu z doby, kdy sice ještě nezačal rozklad této nejmajetnější, nejvlivnější, nejsvéráznější části ruské buržoasie, ale kdy se už počínají objevovat jeho první příznaky. Foma Gordějev touží po životě, přátelství a lásce. Zoškliví si majetek, bouří se, vidí se ne panem, nýbrž otrokem svého podniku. Je to zdravý člověk, který chce svobodně žít. Protože se mu to nedaří, probíjí mládí v siláckých kouscích mezi nevěstkami a ztracenými existencemi, neplodně vyhazuje nespotřebovanou energii. Uražení kupci ho dávají pro jeho oprávněnou kritiku zavřít do blázince a pouští ho odtud teprve tehdy, když se skutečně zbláznil. Tak se jim bezděky podaří dokumentovat, že člověk čistého srdce a přímého charakteru mezi nimi žít nemůže.

If you strip off the mask of convention, lay aside the restraints which belong to the code of respectibility, and expose raw human nature with its barbarous proclivities and its flashes of inspiration, you have Maxim Gorky's "Creatures That Once Were Men". It is a name which these creatures themselves accept with cynical rejoicing; if they have ceased to be men, they have become brutes and gods, the brute presumably predominating because once they were men. Maxim Gorky has chosen for his subject the inmates of a doss-house that he may the more clearly show human nature untrammelled, as revealed in men, gross, vicious, foul-mouthed, hating authority, cut loose from the past, without hope for the future, seizing the brutal but conceivably brilliant present, and laughing to scorn every accepted dogma of society. By this means he throws into naked contrast the shams of civilization, supported on one side by a well-dressed, cheating, pertinacious merchant; on the other side by a cringing inn-keeper with the nature of a flunkey; on the other side by corporations, courts, and inspectors of police -- the machinery of society.
