Maxim Gorky, whose real name was Alexey Maximovich Pyeshkov, is probably the best-known late-19th-century Russian fiction article writer among the British speaking world. His pen-name means Maxim the Bitter, which frame of mind is shown in a lot of his works. A lot of his writing reflects his own terrible life experience and suffering. It is in his brief experiences that he reveals his true genius. "Comrades" reveals an ironic humour in its conception and it is one of Gorky's lighter tales. A peasant policeman is dispatched to escort a vagrant without papers to the nearest magistrate, a considerable distance away. As both talk on the voyage, it becomes clear to the listener...and finally to the policeman...the real personal information of the vagrant.
