Summary: "Ei rahallakaan: Kertomus" by P. Polevoi is a fictional narrative likely written in the early 20th century. The story introduces Semjon Silytsh Gwozdilin, a prominent and wealthy Moscow merchant known for his philanthropic endeavors. Through the lens of his life and interactions, the book explores themes of wealth, social responsibility, and personal integrity within the context of early modern Russian society. The opening of the story paints a vivid picture of Gwozdilin’s grand merchant house in Moscow, filled with bustling activity and surrounded by a diverse cast of characters, including beggars waiting for alms from the merchant himself. It establishes Gwozdilin as a figure of authority and influence in his community, revered for his charitable actions. However, the narrative hints at underlying tensions regarding wealth and social status, especially as Gwozdilin grapples with the expectations of his wealth while seeing the disparity faced by the needy. Furthermore, the beginnings of personal conflict are introduced with Gwozdilin’s son, Iwan, who rejects his father's wealth and status in pursuit of a more altruistic life dedicated to serving the less fortunate.
