Nikolai Alexeevich Ostrovsky (1904— 1936) was a famous proletarian writer and Bolshevik fighter in the former Soviet Union. 1904 was born in a worker's family on September 22nd. Because of his poor family,1/started to work as a child laborer at the age of 15, and 16 was unfortunately seriously injured in the battle. He was blind at the age of 23, paralyzed at the age of 25, and died at the age of 1936. Three years later, he overcame unimaginable difficulties and created the immortal masterpiece How Steel was Tempered, realizing his ideal of returning to combat posts. At the end of the novel, Paul finally received a telegram from the state Committee in almost desperate expectation: "The novel is highly appreciated and will be published soon. Congratulations on its success. " In real life, ostrovsky was not so lucky, but experienced more hardships. After the novel was sent to the publishing house, it was rejected at the beginning. Later, through the efforts of my friends, I was carefully admitted to a magazine. A monologue by Pavel Colta King, the hero of the novel, in front of the tomb of the martyrs in his hometown has become the motto of millions of young people: "Life is the most precious thing for a person, and everyone lives only once. A person's life should be spent like this: looking back, he will not regret wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of doing nothing; In this way, when he dies, he can say,' All my life and energy have been dedicated to the most magnificent cause in the world-the struggle for the liberation of mankind.'
