Octavo, red cloth & black boards (hardcover), gilt lettering, vi, 489 pp. Very Good, with light foxing (age darkened spotting) to page edges; in a Very Good dust jacket with light edgewear and rubbing. From dust jacket: Gogol was a man of unpredictable temperament and acute perplexity. His physical repulsivenesses, illnesses, and hypochondria contributed to his desire to achieve "magnificence in something." Although in his dealings with people he rarely told the truth, as a writer he embodied in his characters universal truths of human experience. Relying constantly on family and friends to support him, Gogol lived virtually his whole life in debt, yet when he received royalties from his works, he tried to give the money away. Russia is the setting for all his works, but he spent nearly all of his adult life outside his homeland, mostly in Rome. He felt that his gift as a writer had been given to him by God, but his devotion to God and his craft was veiled in mysticism. A divided soul. In addition to focusing on Gogol's life and times, Henri Troyat writes about the shaping of Gogl's masterpieces -- Evenings on a Farm, The Inspector General, and Dead Souls -- and imparts an understanding for the work, as well as of the man.
