Book Summary
Synopsis
Nikolai Gogol was one of the great geniuses of nineteenth century Russian
literature, with a command of the irrational unmatched by any writer before or
since. His strange tales, though often read as forceful demands for social
change, were displays of the fantasies of the human spirit. In this ideal
marriage of subject and critic, Nabokov analyses his endlessly inventive
compatriot, focusing on the masterpieces Dead Souls, 'The Overcoat' and 'The
Government Inspector'.
Misunderstood by his contemporaries, mishandled by theatre directors and ending
his life mistreated by doctors - with medicinal leeches hanging from his
exceptional nose - it took Nabokov to give Gogol, 'the oddest Russian in
Russia',
