Om den här e-boken
This is a new translation from the original Russian manuscript of Gogol's classic "The Lost Letter". This edition contains an Afterword by the Translator, a timeline of Gogol's life and works and an Index of Gogol's individual works. A humorous story about a Cossack who loses an official letter and the ensuing chaos and adventures he faces while trying to retrieve it. The sexton tells the story of his grandfather's adventure in hell. Once, when his grandfather was sent to deliver a letter to the Tsarina (apparently the Empress Elisabeth), he came across a fair in Konotop where he met a Zaporozhian Cossack. They quickly become friends and drink to each other's health. During their carousel, the Cossack reveals that he has sold his soul to the devil, and if he were a true friend, he would promise to stay up and watch over him that night so that he would be safe.

Om författaren
A Russian dramatist, novelist, and short story writer, Gogol was a personal friedn of Dostoevsky, Turgenev and Tolstoy. He is considered the father of modern Russian realism. His works, including "Dead Souls" and "The Overcoat," are renowned for their satirical depiction of Russian society and bureaucracy. Gogol's blend of realism, grotesque, and absurdism had a profound influence on Russian and world literature.
