About this ebook

This is a new translation from the original Russian manuscript of Gogol's classic Nevsky Avenue. This edition contains an Afterword by the Translator, a timeline of Gogol's life and works and an Index of Gogol's individual works. Originally published in a collection called "Petersburg stories", this is one of the first uses of the technique of the grotesque, which was largely created by Gogol and copied (along with tragi-comic surrealism) by Kafka.

About the author

A Russian dramatist, novelist, and short story writer, Gogol was a personal friedn of Dostoevsky, Turgenev and Tolstoy. He is considered the father of modern Russian realism. His works, including "Dead Souls" and "The Overcoat," are renowned for their satirical depiction of Russian society and bureaucracy. Gogol's blend of realism, grotesque, and absurdism had a profound influence on Russian and world literature.
