"Taras Bulba" is a short historical novel by Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol from the series "Mirgorod".
The plot of the novel concerns the history of Zaporozhian Cossacks. The main character is Taras Buljba, an old Cossack, who, with his sons Andrija and Ostap, sets out to fight against the Polish nobility and defend Orthodoxy.
Dead Souls (1842) is a brilliant satire that exposes the moral and social rot of imperial Russia through Chichikov's fraud with dead serfs, with Gogol's virtuoso mix of humor, irony and lyricism.
The story of Gogol is a story of tragic talent, mysticism and madness, of a manuscript that burned, of a nose and an overcoat, of an auditor and dead souls.
