Dead Souls by Nikolai Gogol

Dead Souls by Nikolai Gogol

Chichikov arrives in a provincial Russian town and starts politely buying serfs who have died since the last census but remain, on paper, alive and taxable. Landowners are delighted to sell him a liability for cash.

Gogol meant it as the first part of a Dantean trilogy — Inferno, Purgatorio, Paradiso — and burned the second part twice before dying. What survives is a ferocious comic portrait of provincial Russia's greed, vanity and bureaucratic absurdity, narrated by a voice that keeps interrupting itself to address the reader directly.

One of the foundational works of Russian prose, unfinished and still extraordinary.
