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.
