Long live ficus! (1936)-Gorky, ironic, largely an autobiographical novel.
The main character is Gordon Comstock, an unrecognized poet, a loser writer, forced to serve in an advertising agency in order to earn a living. He despises the material values and vulgarity of the ordinary way of life, the symbol of which becomes ficus on the window. In all his failures, he blames the money, but proud poverty only leads it into the depths of depression ...
Komstok needs to understand that in addition to high art there are simple joys, and there is nothing shameful in the effort to earn money. What will save him?
“The daughter of a priest” (1935) is a novel that is completely unlike the sarcastic “cattle yard” and the gloomy anti -utopia “1984”. A novel that will introduce you to another Orwell - a master of psychological realism.
This story is a cruel mockery of outdated morals and foundations of a society living in religion without faith and limiting human freedom to choose his life path
