Maxim Gorky
Biography
Russian writer. Pen name of Alexei Peshkov. Born in Nizhny-Novgorod (renamed Gorky, 1932 in his honour) he was exiled (1906-13) for his revolutionary principles. His work, which include the play The Lower Depths (1902) and the recollections My Childhood (1913), combine realism with faith in the potential of the industrial proletariat.
