Omschrijving

In "Creatures That Once Were Men," Maksim Gorky presents a series of poignant vignettes that explore the plight of the downtrodden and disillusioned in early 20th-century Russia. Through a blend of realism and expressionism, Gorky delves into the struggles of the urban poor, dissecting the moral and social decay of a society steeped in poverty and despair. The stories not only highlight the harsh realities faced by the protagonists but also evoke a sense of compassion, urging readers to confront the dehumanizing consequences of an oppressive social order. Gorky's rich, evocative language combines with his acute psychological insight to create a powerful narrative that resonates with the existential crises of modern humanity.
