Selected Tales

In a new translation by Michael R. Katz (acclaimed translator of Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment), exclusively available through the Norton Library, Selected Tales presents a collection of Nikolai Gogol’s most regarded short fiction: \”Ivan Fyodorovich Shponka and His Auntie,\” \”Nevsky Prospect,\” \”Notes of a Madman,\” \”The Nose,\” \”The Carriage,\” \”The Portrait,\” and \”The Overcoat.\” An introduction by Kate Holland situates the stories in the historical and literary contexts of imperial St. Petersburg, inviting a new generation of readers to appreciate Gogol’s transformative vision and incisive social criticism.
