The complete tales of one of the most creative, incisive, and entertaining of the Russian masters Nikolai Gogol was an artist who, like Rabelais, Cervantes, Swift, and Sterne, knew how to walk upside down in our valley of sorrows so as to make it to a merry place. The list of writers who credit his absurd, bitingly satirical, wildly funny work as an influence includes Dostoevsky, Kafka, Mikhail Bulgakov, Nabokov, Flannery O'Connor, and many more. This two-volume edition at last brings all of Gogol's fiction (except his novel Dead Souls) together in paperback. Volume 2 of The Complete Tales includes Gogol's Mirgorod stories--among them that masterpiece of grotesque comedy, The Tale of How Ivan Ivanovich Quarreled with Ivan Nikiforovich, the wonderfully satiric Old World Landowners, and the Cossak epic Taras Bulba. Here also is The Nose, Gogol's final effort in the realm of the fantastic, as well as The Coach, The Portrait (in its final version), and the most influential of his Petersburg stories, The Overcoat.
