Dmitry Bykov, a famous prose writer, poet, and brilliant publicist, in his book “Was there Gorky?” depicts the figure of a classic writer free from literary gloss and subsequent mythology. Where does Alexey Peshkov end and Maxim Gorky begin? Who was he? A writer of everyday life, a singer of the urban bottom? "Petrel of the Revolution"? Incorrigible romantic? Or did his life and writing position sometimes border on cold calculation? Be that as it may, Bykov is sure: “Gorky is a great, monstrous, touching, strange and absolutely necessary writer today.”
