Nikolai Gogol's comic tour de force about human folly. One of the jewels of Russian literature.

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.

Episode 1 (23 April 2006)

    Charmer Chichikov arrives in town with his narrator in tow, and starts
    touting for dead souls.  Why? What is he going to do with them? Suspicions
    come to a head at the Governor's Ball, the highlight of provincial
    Russian society.

Episode 2 (30 April 2006)

    In disgrace, Chichikov is arrested but escapes with the narrator's help
    to another part of Russia.  He at last seems determined to make a fresh
    start and become an honest man.  However, his past is about to catch up
    with him.
