Book Summary
(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)Nikolai Gogol’s Dead Souls is the great comic masterpiece of Russian
literature–a satirical and splendidly exaggerated epic of life in the benighted
provinces.
Gogol hoped to show the world “the untold riches of the Russian soul” in this
1842 novel, which he populated with a Dickensian swarm of characters: rogues and
scoundrels, landowners and serfs, conniving petty officials–all of them both
utterly lifelike and alarmingly larger than life. Setting everything in motion
is the wily antihero, Chichikov, the trafficker in “dead souls”–deceased serfs
who still represent profit to those clever enough to trade in them.
This lively, idiomatic English version by the award-winning translators
