Complete and unabridged, with 18 full-page plates by Vladimir Makovsky, Vasily Perov and Vasily Andreevich Tropinin. Gogol's "Dead Souls" in its first English dress, published in 1854 as a picture of Russian country life for readers who had never seen one. Chichikov buys the names of serfs who have died since the last census, and each landowner he visits is a portrait of a way of being ruined. The translator's title suits the disguise: this was sold to England as travel and is one of the great comic novels. Eighteen plates of Russian genre painting by Fedotov and Perov, from marriage proposals to tea parties, extend the novel's gallery of provincial types.
