MGMaxim Gorki
[[en]] * Born: 16 March 1868 * Birthplace: Nizhny Novgorod (now Gorky), Russia * Death: June 1936 * Best Known As: Russian writer known for his socialist realism Name at birth: Aleksey Maksimovich Peshkov Maxim Gorky (also spelled Maksim Gorki) is one of the giants of 20th century Russian literature and theater, known for his realistic depictions of how terrible it is to be poor and oppressed. Gorky himself grew up in rough times and was a lifelong spokesperson for the underclass. His political activism led to several years of exile, in spite of his popularity with Russian readers. By 1900 Gorky was a famous literary figure, thanks in part to help from Anton Chekhov. His short stories and his first novel, Foma Gordeyev (1902) gave him notoriety as well as critical success, but his outspoken opposition to the rule of Nicholas II led to his exile to the island of Capri (1907-13). After the 1917 revolution Gorky's criticism of his friend V. I. Lenin and the Bolsheviks led to another...

John Steinbeck
John Steinbeck (1902-1968), born in Salinas, California, came from a family of moderate means. He worked his way through college at Stanford University but never graduated. In 1925 he went to New York, where he tried for a few years to establish himself as a free-lance writer, but he failed and returned to California. After publishing some novels and short stories, Steinbeck first became widely known with Tortilla Flat (1935), a series of humorous stories about Monterey paisanos. Steinbeck's novels can all be classified as social novels dealing with the economic problems of rural labour, but there is also a streak of worship of the soil in his books, which does not always agree with his matter-of-fact sociological approach. After the rough and earthy humour of Tortilla Flat, he moved on to more serious fiction, often aggressive in its social criticism, to In Dubious Battle (1936), which deals with the strikes of the migratory fruit pickers on California plantations. This was followed...

O carte: prea mult, mai multe: prea putin. Consecinta: O femeie, prea mult! Multe femei, asa de putin! Nascut 1955, Scorpion pur. In Ploiesti am invatat viata de cartier. In Fagaras am invatat frumusetea si maretia singuratatii. In Bucuresti am invatat. La Frankfurt am invatat Salsa. La Giessen nu am terminat. In Brussels am inteles cum se gateste cu vin rosu. La Baton Rouge traiesc. In Natchitoches am avut cea mai frumoasa toamna a vietii mele. Acum sunt Antwerp. Nu stiu de ce, am uitat.

MMMaram al - Masri
Maram al-Masri est née en 1962 à Lattaquié en Syrie, sur cette rive de la Méditerranée située à vingt milles marins à peine de l\'île de Cypris. Vivant à Paris depuis 1982, cette jeune Syrienne, après un premier livre publié en 1984 à Damas sous le titre \"Je te menace d\'une colombe blanche\", revient à la poésie avec \"Cerise rouge sur un carrelage blanc\", édité à Tunis par les éditions de L\'Or du Temps, en 1997, et salué par la critique des pays arabes. Le tout récent prix du Forum culturel libanais en France, auquel a participé le poète libanais Adonis et destiné à récompenser toute création littéraire arabe, lui a été attribué en mars 1998. D\'autre part, ce livre a été traduit en espagnol et en partie en anglais, en allemand, en Italien et en turc. Cette poésie est le cri étouffé et nu de la femme qui attend tout de l\'homme aimé. Cette revendication féminine bien éloignée de toute préoccupation hédoniste, n\'est pas non plus une nouvelle voix qui soulèverait la chape de plomb...
