Centering on the picaresque realism of Nikolai Gogol’s (1809-1852) mid-19th-century visions of the extraordinary in everyday life, this collection mines the ambiance and mind of pre-Revolutionary Russia. These seven stories take us from the Miracle Mile of St. Petersburg’s Nevsky Prospekt, and a summer night in a Ukrainian village, to the fantastical psychological geographies of fathers, sons, and madmen. Augmenting Gogol’s visions are two disturbing tales by the foremost storyteller of Russia’s “Silver Age”.

Drei Erzählungen von Nikolai Gogol. Nikolai Gogol (1809-1852) war nicht nur ein brillanter Satiriker, er konnte auch in die Zukunft sehen. Beispiel: "Wißt ihr denn auch, daß der Beck [...] eine Warze unter der Nase hat?" ("Aufzeichnungen eines Wahnsinnigen"). Gut, er hat Volker Beck mit Claudia Roth verwechselt, aber angesichts einer zeitlichen Distanz von über 150 Jahren ist das trotzdem eine beachtliche Leistung.

Since its publication in 1842, Dead Souls has been celebrated as a supremely realistic portrait of provincial Russian life and as a splendidly exaggerated tale; as a paean to the Russian spirit and as a remorseless satire of imperial Russian venality, vulgarity, and pomp. As Gogol's wily antihero, Chichikov, combs the back country wheeling and dealing for "dead souls"—deceased serfs who still represent money to anyone sharp enough to trade in them—we are introduced to a Dickensian cast of peasants, landowners, and conniving petty officials.
