Dekanka's Night Talk in the Countryside
About This Novel
First published in 1829, "Dykonka Nights" is Gogol's first anthology of novels and the first collection of novels that established the writer's position in the history of Russian literature. It includes eight works: "Saudinsky Market", "St. John's Eve", "May Night", "The Lost Credentials", "Christmas Eve", "Terrible Revenge", "Ivan Fedorovich Shpanka and His Aunt" and "The Devil's Land". Most of these works are based on Ukrainian folklore, reflecting the people's lives and historical events in Ukraine, and revealing the thematic features and descriptive features that will appear in "Dead Souls" in the future. Gogol's three novels form a set of readings, which is conducive to a centralized grasp of Gogol's literary concepts and creative characteristics.
