Status Updates From Însemnările unui nebun

got to read snippets throughout last week; Ivan Ivanovich was pretty good until it became odd; Nevsky Prospect... i actually loved the description of the area, until it spun some odd story about people, but the ending was pretty relevant (even tho it's more of a DUH moment)

من این کتاب رو میذارم کنار فعلا.
در آینده دوباره می‌رم سراغش.

20 pages of the introduction; pretty insightful as to how gogol operates best in short stories, but also sucks how he was so unsure whether they were good, that he even burnt a lot of his work away, short stories, plays and even the sequel to Dead Souls... i am endlessly fascinated by the minds of russian writers; given dostoyevsky's my fav, gogol won't disappoint

fun

pfffft.

This is actually quite funnier than I expected.
