Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Makar´s Dream, and Other Stories The writings of Vladimir Korolenko have been likened to "a fresh breeze blowing through the heavy air of a hospital." The hospital is the pessimistic literature of the modern Russian intellectuals; the fresh breeze is the voice of the simple-hearted children of "Mother Russia." These are for the most part tillers of the soil and conquerors of waste places; peasants, pioneers, and Siberian exiles; they often belong to the great class of "the insulted and the injured": they suffer untold hardships, but their heads are unbowed and their hearts are full of courage and the desire for justice. Among them the great writer´s early life was spent. Vladimir Korolenko was born on June 15th, 1853, in Zhitomir, a small town in Southwestern or Little Russia. On his father´s side he came of an old Cossack family, his mother was the daughter of a Polish landowner of Zhitomir.
