«Les meves universitats» is the autobiographical account by Maksim Gorki, published by Edicions 62 in paperback (176 pages, in Catalan).
Gorki recounts his youth between 1884 and 1888: frustrated at not being able to enter university, he seeks to educate himself through clandestine discussions with revolutionaries, disputes with religious fanatics and eccentric teachers, and through contact with a varied gallery of marginalized characters.
Third volume of Gorki's autobiography. The work was originally published in 1923; this Catalan edition is from 1976.
Readers interested in Russian literature, memoirs and twentieth-century classics.
Alexei Maximovich Peshkov, popularly known as Maxim Gorky, was a Russian and Soviet writer, journalist, and proponent of socialism. He was nominated five times for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Before his success as an author, he travelled widely across the Russian Empire, changing jobs frequently; these experiences would later influence his writing. He associated with fellow Russian writers Leo Tolstoy and Anton Chekhov, both mentioned by Gorky in his memoirs.
