Maxim Gorky's My Apprenticeship is the second part of his three part autobiography which includes My Childhood and My Universities. For those who haven't been introduced to Gorky, Maxim Gorky is the pen name of Aleksey Maksimovich Peshkov, born in 1868 in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. After a difficult childhood marked by his mother and father's death, being forced out of his impoverished grandfather's house at the age of eleven, and an attempted suicide at nineteen, Gorky went on to achieve fame writing about the destitution, wretchedness, faint joy and torpor of Russia's peasant and working classes in the late 19th and 20th century. Forced to exile by both the czarist regime and later the Bolsheviks, Gorky returned to Russia in 1929 a literary and cultural hero. I have read Fragments from My Diary and now My Apprenticeship, both autobiographical, but Gorky is also remembered for his plays and novels.
We based our evaluation of book condition on the following criteria:
* New: Just like it sounds. A brand-new, unused, unread copy in perfect condition.
* Like New: An apparently unread copy in perfect condition. Dust cover is intact; pages are clean and are not marred by notes or folds of any kind.
* Very Good: A copy that has been read, but remains in excellent condition. Pages are intact and are not marred by notes or highlighting, but may contain a neat previous owner name. The spine remains undamaged.
* Good: A copy that has been read, but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact. The spine may show signs of wear. Pages can include limited notes and highlighting, and the copy can include "From the library of" labels or previous owner inscriptions.
* Acceptable: A readable copy. All pages are intact, and the cover is intact (the dust cover may be missing). Pages can include considerable notes--in pen or highlighter--but the notes cannot obscure the text.
