Description
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, few of whom can resist
the seductive illogic of Chichikov's proposition.
This lively, idiomatic English version by the
award-winning translators Richard Pevear and
Larissa Volokhonsky makes accessible the full
extent of the novel's lyricism, sulphurous humor,
and delight in human oddity and error.
