Dead Souls book cover

Dead Souls

Nikolai Gogol

In Dead Souls, explore provincial Russian life through the wily antihero Chichikov as he deals in "dead souls"-- serfs who still represent money. This novel serves as a satire of imperial Russian venality and vulgarity, providing a Dickensian cast of characters that are both funny and endearing. With a lively translation by award-winning translators, experience the full extent of this novel's humor and delight in human oddity and error.
