    Gorky’s “My Childhood” really broke my heart. It’s a truly beautiful book. Sheds light onto the life of the average Russian people in Tsarist Russia.

      Yes, I’m really liking “My Universities” as well for the same reasons. They’re part of his autobiographical trilogy: “My Childhood”, “My Apprenticeship”, and “My Universities”. And it seems I’ll be reading them out of order.
