Àííîòàöèÿ: "I was called a lucky man today. It's quite true, you really see a lucky man before you, a man whose dreams and best hopes have come true," Gorky addressed these words to his readers shortly before he died. It may be that when he spoke these words, the world famous writer recalled that period in his life when, as a sixteen-year-old boy in 1884, he started on foot for Kazan, a large city on the Volga, with the hope of being admitted to the university there. But what lay in store for him was the backbreaking toil of a pauper, a slum dweller. It was this he called "his universities" which steeled his willof a fighter against all kinds of injustice and strengthened in him the urgent desire to "remake life" - his own and that of the people surrounding him. The story of those years is told in the last book of the trilogy "My Universities".
