"Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka" was Nikolai Gogol's (1809-1852) first major work, bringing him true fame and success. These eight stories, in which mysticism effortlessly coexists with reality, and comedy with horror stories, immediately won the hearts of the capital's audiences, including Pushkin himself.

Gogol's colorful characters, folklore, and dialectal expressions, along with mouth-watering descriptions of local cuisine, all shaped the classic image of Little Russia, so familiar to everyone from school.

In the collection's most New Year's story, "The Night Before Christmas," the blacksmith Vakula, attempting to win the heart of the unapproachable Oksana, sets off to St. Petersburg riding the devil to obtain the Tsar's slippers.

A new series for fans of classics, "Magistral. The Main Trend," in hardcover. Impeccable style, conciseness, tactile materials, colored endpapers, and a pattern on the edge.
