About this audiobook
Nikolai Gogol
NIKOLAI Vasilyevich GOGOL (1809-1852) was a Ukrainian-born humorist, dramatist, and novelist whose works, written in Russian, significantly influenced the direction of Russian literature. As enigmatic as he was influential, Gogol's novel Dead Souls and his short story "The Overcoat" provided the literary foundations of nineteenth-century Russian realism. His shorter works are gathered in Selected Stories of Nikolai Gogol: Ukrainian and St. Petersburg Tales, available from Warbler Press.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The story of "The Cloak" is definitely interesting...I can see how it was influential to later writers. The narrator of the story really helps it along, and does a good job with voicing the characters without too much exaggeration.
