"Childhood" after reading

"Childhood" was written in 1931. It shows readers the life of Gorky's childhood in his grandfather's family, and records Gorky's journey under the rule of the Tsar. The book has successfully shaped several roles, especially the role of grandmother, who is known as "one of the most vivid and poetic images in the history of Russian literature." The novel truly depicts the face of Russian-Chinese society in the 1970s and 1990s, showing a suffocating life full of cruelty, brutality, ignorance, and filth. When I read "Childhood", I really realized the corruption, ugliness, ignorance and numbness of the Tsarist autocratic system, the ignorance and numbness of the people in the dark, and the struggle of the younger generation against darkness, slavery, and the pursuit of freedom and light.

The book vividly depicts the tragic childhood of the protagonist Aliosha. The painful childhood life of the protagonist Aliosha touched me: the four-year-old father, the grief-stricken mother and the kind-hearted grandmother went to the tyrannical, bankrupt-small home of the grandfather's grandfather, but often beaten by the violent grandfather. But the kind grandmother is protecting him everywhere. At his grandfather's house, he met many "quiet and quiet" relatives, including two selfish, insatiable, mischievous Mikhail and Yakov, and two are called Sarah. Cousin. The simple and intimate love of Aliosha’s “Little Tsang” used his arm to block the whip of his grandfather’s body on Aliosha, although he would be swollen. But he was strong, but later he was killed when he helped the second Jackov to carry the cross.

Aliosha’s childhood was dark, just like his family. There are too many cruel things around, and sometimes even he can't believe that such things will happen. But fortunately, there are grandmothers - the spiritual pillar of the whole family. Aliosha also knows a lot of other people: a few tenants after moving into a new house, three young masters next door, and so on. Aliosha understood some truths from some of the "strange" moves of his family. It is really tragic that Gorky’s childhood is compared to ours now!

Compared with Alyosha, our childhood is splendid and colorful; it is painless and worry-free. In our lives, there are very few intrigues between family members, and greed and fierce things like fighting for property. There is no such thing as a "terrorist incident" that has never been thought of by cruelly forcing an innocent person to death. And now, we are not afraid to eat or wear. Also, you can learn more and accept more knowledge.

But with these, we are not satisfied. We always want more. Indeed, we don’t have to go to the “human world” alone when we are only 11 years old like Aliosha. But after reading "Childhood", we should repent of our own luxury, we should not waste, we should learn to cherish.

Then, let's start now. We are no longer extravagant, no longer waste; we begin to think for the elders and understand them; we should start to satisfy our own happy life.
