About this product
Product Information
The best of Gogol in a single volume - his most famous drama and the most brilliant of his short stories. Author, dramatist and satirist, Nikolay Gogol (1809-1852) deeply influenced later Russian literature with his powerful depictions of a society dominated by petty beaurocracy and base corruption. This volume includes both his most admired short fiction and his most famous drama. A biting and frequently hilarious political satire, The Government Inspector has been popular since its first performance and was regarded by Nabokov as the greatest Russian play every written. The stories gathered here, meanwhile, range from comic to tragic and describe the isolated lives of low-ranking clerks, lunatics and swindlers. They include Diary of a Madman, an amusing but disturbing exploration of insanity; Nevsky Prospect, a depiction of an artist besotted with a prostitute; and The Overcoat, a moving consideration of poverty that powerfully influenced Dostoevsky and later Russian literature.

Took a bit longer to arrive than date stated but there was a bank holiday in that period to be fair. Apart from that it was a great price and the book was shipped in a nice sturdy cardboard envelope which is how it should be so I have no hesitation in recommending Monster Bookshop. A+++
