Summary "Kulkuri: Kertomuksia" by Maksim Gorky is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. The narratives explore the lives of marginalized characters, focusing on those who exist on the fringes of society, often depicting their struggles, desires, and the harsh realities they face. The main protagonist introduced in the opening, Grishka Tshelkash, is portrayed as a cunning and resourceful individual, embodying the essence of a wanderer or "kulkuri," and sets the stage for examining themes of freedom, poverty, and the quest for dignity. At the start of the collection, the vivid description of a bustling port filled with the sounds and sights of labor paints a rich setting. Grishka Tshelkash, the central character, emerges as a notable figure among the weary port workers, characterized by humor and sharp wit. The opening introduces his interactions with fellow laborers and a customs officer, hinting at his troubled past and reputation in the community. As the narrative unfolds, Gorky captures the dichotomy between the oppressive atmosphere of the working class and the fleeting moments of joy and camaraderie among them, establishing Tshelkash as a complex character navigating a world rife with challenges and aspirations.
