Features: Thunder roaring, a pile of dark clouds float above the head of the endless sea like deep blue flames. The sea grasps the light of lightning and extinguishes it in its abyss. The shadows of lightning, like fiery serpents, swim in the sea, disappearing. "Storm! The storm is about to break!" That is the brave albatross, flying proudly amidst the lightning, over the roaring sea: this victorious prophet cries, "Let the storm be fiercer!" This book is a collection of selected short and medium-length works by Gorky, representing the highest achievement of his short and medium-length works. It includes "The Albatross" and Gorky's first novel, as well as his later works. The selected works span a period of 43 years.
