O książce
Maksim Gorky'Äôs «In the World» is a poignant exploration of societal dislocation and existential struggles, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Russia.

With a profound understanding of human suffering and dignity, Gorky'Äôs narrative reflects both his personal struggles and his enduring optimism for social change, showcasing his position as a leading voice in the realistic literary movement. «In the World» is a must-read for anyone interested in Russian literature, social issues, or the human condition. Gorky'Äôs evocative storytelling and deep empathy create a powerful narrative that resonates with contemporary concerns about identity and belonging, making this work both timeless and relevant.
