To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The remainder linger on till their souls have pre- ceded their bodies in death. Maxim Gorky was not the first to describe the ways of living and thinking or to paint the personalities of the vagrant population of Russia. Maximoff, Levitoff and others had forestalled him years before, each after the manner peculiar to himself. The latter writer, whose own lot was also cast among tramps and outcasts, is naturally the nearest of kin to Peshkoff. Yet the chasm that sunders them is immeasurable. Lev...itoffs sketches are fancifully romantic, sickly senti- mental, hopelessly pessimistic and wholly devoid of healthy realism. Gorky's poetic gifts and the fresh natural colours of his word-painting raise him high above all his predecessors, among whom he came as a 172 THE BAREFOOT BRIGADE whole-hearted man who, thrusting aside formulas and conventionalities, called things by their vulgar names and had the courage to tell society that its evil was not good. 173 CHAPTER VII THE OVER-TRAMP Chelkash, Makar Chudra, Danko Gorky's Barefoot Brigade, a survival of an extinct order of things which new social conditions still in flux have considerably modified but not yet abolished, falls naturally into two categories : stragglers from the benighted masses whose powerful but morbid will is very insufficiently lighted by their intelligence, and who would be set down as vulgar tramps in Western Europe and the United States ; and deserters from the ranks of the upper classes who cannot or will not continue their pilgrimage in the company of their fellows.
