Publisher's Synopsis
Foma Gordyeeff is a novel written by the Russian author Maxim Gorky and first published in 1901. The book tells the story of Foma, a young man from a wealthy family who is struggling to find his place in the world. Foma is a dreamer and a rebel, and he rejects the values of his family and society. He becomes involved in radical politics and falls in love with a young woman named Liza. However, Foma's idealism and his desire for personal freedom lead him into conflict with those around him, including his own family. The novel is a powerful exploration of the tensions between individualism and social responsibility, and it offers a vivid portrait of Russia at the turn of the 20th century. Gorky's writing is known for its vivid descriptions of characters and settings, and Foma Gordyeeff is no exception, with its richly drawn characters and evocative depictions of life in pre-revolutionary Russia. Overall, Foma Gordyeeff is a classic of Russian literature and a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of Russia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
