Its petty and pathetic hero, Akakii Akakievich, has become one of the emblematic figures of Russian literature. With its idiosyncratic \u003ci\u003eskaz\u003c\/i\u003e style, its grotesque characterisation and its mixture of black humour and pathos, this work continues to attract avid critical attention.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45087143329943,"sku":"9781853992490","price":3055.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781853992490.webp?v=1767266508","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-gogol-the-overcoat-9781853992490","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
