Los vagabundos is a collection of short stories and novels by the Russian author Máximo Gorki, based on his personal experiences as a tramp in freezing Russia. In these stories, Gorki describes the miserable life of men who could have been useful but were lost in the void, offering social criticism and a compassionate song for the Russian people. This edition, published by Zero, presents a harsh and heartbreaking protest of the infra-animal life of these characters.
Alexei Maximovich Peshkov, popularly known as Maxim Gorky, was a Russian and Soviet writer, journalist, and proponent of socialism. He was nominated five times for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Before his success as an author, he travelled widely across the Russian Empire, changing jobs frequently; these experiences would later influence his writing. He associated with fellow Russian writers Leo Tolstoy and Anton Chekhov, both mentioned by Gorky in his memoirs.
