About This Novel
This book marks a new peak for Gorky in exploring positive characters. Since the 1890s, Gorky has been actively exploring the creation of positive characters in his creations. Since the beginning of the 20th century, the booming workers' movement has greatly inspired his creative passion. The 1905 revolution had a decisive impact on Gorky's political thought and literary and artistic creation. He stood at the height of proletarian thought, boldly innovated, and finally created the typical image of Pavel, a plump proletarian hero, and brought the worker and peasant heroes into the field of literature. This book shows Gorky's high artistic talent in portraying proletarian heroes. In this book, Gorky used the creative method of socialist realism for the first time, that is, to describe reality truly, historically and concretely from the actual revolutionary development. This book is the first new literary work written using this creative method. This book creates a new era of proletarian literature with its true description of the new revolutionary reality, its profound summary of the nature of the times, its heroic figures with high ideological and artistic qualities, and its new creative methods.
