Nevsky Prospect Paperback / softback
by Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol
Edited by D. M. Pursglove
Part of the Russian Texts series
Paperback / softback
Description
The theatrical genius of Nikolay Gogol has gone largely unappreciated by English-speaking audiences because pedantically literal translations have left his plays virtually unperformable.
These fresh translations restore the vitality of Gogol's language and humor, finally allowing his dramatic art to speak directly to Western readers, directors, actors, and theater-goers.
This volume contains The Government Inspector and Marriage - Gogol's greatest full-length plays, comedic cornerstones of the Russian theatrical repertoire - and a one-act satire, The Gamblers.
Also included are writings on theater from Gogol's notebooks and correspondences
