Gogol Three Plays by Nikolai Gogol

Gogol Three Plays by Nikolai Gogol

All three of Gogol's most satirical plays are translated in this collection by Stephen Mulrine, who also includes a complete introduction to Gogol's theatre and a chronology of the Russian writer's work.

Nikolai Gogol (1809-1852) won fame as a short story writer, and in 1836, his satirical comedy The Government Inspector created such a furore that Gogol left Russia to settle in Rome, in self-imposed exile. Religious mania in his later years contributed to his early death in Moscow. Born Glasgow, 1937, married with three children, lecturer in History of Art at Glasgow School of Art. Freelance writer, broadcaster and translator. Literary output includes poetry, short stories and criticism, also several original plays for television, and some ninety plus hours of radio drama, serials, adaptations and original plays. His adaptation of Yerofeev's 'Moscow Stations', published by Oberon Books, has been staged in Edinburgh, London and New York. Since the late 1980’s has concentrated on translation from Russian.
