«Racconti di Pietroburgo» is Nikolai Gogol's collection of short stories, published by Cult Editore in paperback (241 pages, in Italian).
The stories in this cycle are set in St Petersburg, a dazzling yet dehumanizing city. Between irony and grotesque humor, we encounter a clerk whose new overcoat is stolen, a nose that decides to pursue a career, an accursed portrait, Nevsky Avenue, and the diary of an employee who loses his mind.
The cycle was originally published in 1842 under the title «Петербургские повести». Cover design by Mario Spezi.
Aimed at readers of nineteenth-century Russian literature and of fantastic realism in the short story.
