Nikolai Gogol 
The Nose [EPUB ebook] 

Support

This early work by Nikolai Gogol was originally published in 1835 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. ‘The Nose’ is a short story about a St. Petersburg official whose nose leaves his face and develops a life of its own. Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol was born in Sorochintsi, Ukraine in 1809. In 1831, Gogol brought out the first volume of his Ukrainian stories, ‘Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka’. It met with immediate success, and he followed it a year later with a second volume. ‘The Nose’ is regarded as a masterwork of comic short fiction, and ‘The Overcoat’ is now seen as one of the greatest short stories ever written; some years later, Dostoyevsky famously stated ‘We all come out from Gogol’s ‘Overcoat’.’ He is seen by many contemporary critics as one of the greatest short story writers who has ever lived, and the Father of Russia’s Golden Age of Realism.

Often referred to as the Father of the Golden Age of Russian Literature, Gogol was the author of the first great Russian novel, Dead Souls, 1842.
