Sinopse
Características

This early work by Nikolai Gogol was originally published in 1835 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. Memoirs; or, Diary of a Madman is a short story about the life of a minor civil servant during the repressive era of Nicholas I. Following the format of a diary, the story shows the descent of the protagonist, Poprishchin, into insanity. 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 Gogols Overcoat. He is seen by many contemporary critics as one of the greatest short story writers who has ever lived, and the Father of Russias Golden Age of Realism.
