Description
Description
'For human passions are as numberless as is the sand of the seashore, and go on to become his most insistent of masters.'A stranger arrives in a provincial Russian town with impeccable manners and a peculiar business plan: he wishes to buy the names of dead peasants. Not their land, not their belongings—only their souls, still counted on official records. As his scheme quietly unfolds, Gogol opens a window onto an entire society caught in its own absurd routines.Part comedy, part social portrait, part moral fable, Dead Souls is populated with greedy landlords, hollow officials, and a hero whose respectability masks something unsettling. The novel exposes a world where paperwork matters more than people, reputation more than character, and appearance more than truth.At once funny and unsettling, Gogol’s masterpiece reveals how easily a society can mistake emptiness for success. Beneath its humour runs a sharp question: what happens when human lives are reduced to entries in a ledger?
