Dead Souls. Gogol N.V.

The poem “Dead Souls” was translated into many other languages ​​during the author’s life. She was an incredible success. Nobody before Gogol and after him managed to describe the vices and weaknesses of the Russian person so vividly and sharply, so vividly and truthfully reflect the most important problems for Russia. 160 years have passed, and the poem sounds as just written. Chichikovs, boxes, nostrils, Plyushkins, Sobakevichi - their aspirations, feelings, actions do not seem to us echoes of the past. These characters gain modern and acute sound when we watch more and more performances and films according to this immortal poem.
