Synopsis

En todo caso, al pantano de la existencia nos aproximamos siempre con alguna idea bajo la manga o con un afán meramente pintoresco. Pero la grandeza de Gógol proviene de esa mirada interesada (“no indiferente”) que dirige hacia la estupidez. En esas “vidas atascadas” podemos reconocer la obsesión de Gógol, y en un verdadero escritor las obsesiones suelen convertirse en un tema. Mejor dicho: en los temas de un escritor está también su enfermedad: su locura.

About this title

About the Author

Nikolai Gogol was a Russian novelist and playwright born in what is now considered part of the modern Ukraine. By the time he was 15, Gogol worked as an amateur writer for both Russian and Ukrainian scripts, and then turned his attention and talent to prose. His short-story collections were immediately successful and his first novel, The Government Inspector, was well-received. Gogol went on to publish numerous acclaimed works, including Dead Souls, The Portrait, Marriage, and a revision of Taras Bulba. He died in 1852 while working on the second part of Dead Souls.
