The Squabble by Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol
This early work by Nikolai Gogol was originally published in 1835 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'How the Two Ivans Quarrelled' is a short story about a couple of gentlemen landowners whose friendship is ruined by an argument over a Turkish rifle. To the dismay of their social group, the pair continue to escalate the quarrel and are unable to reach a sensible resolution. Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol was born in Sorochintsi, Ukraine in 1809. In 1831, Gogol brought out the first volume of his Ukrainian stories, 'Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka'. It met with immediate success, and he followed it a year later with a second volume. 'The Nose' is regarded as a masterwork of comic short fiction, and 'The Overcoat' is now seen as one of the greatest short stories ever written; some years later, Dostoyevsky famously stated We all come out from Gogol's 'Overcoat'. He is seen by many contemporary critics as one of the greatest short story writers who has ever lived, and the Father of Russia's Golden Age of Realism.-
