Product description from producer
"The Overcoat" is a novella that tells the story of a great tragedy in the life of a small man, a titular councilor. The event described in the story may seem insignificant to most readers, but for the modest civil servant Akaky Akakievich, it becomes a tragedy. Although initially conceived as a satirical work, it turned into a sentimental and melancholic tale. The character himself, instead of provoking laughter, evokes sympathy. What happened to Mr. Councilor? This satirical novella "The Nose" narrates the unusual adventures of a colleague's nose. Why is a part of this respectable man's body wandering around town in a gilded uniform, and nobody can explain it? How will this strange story end?
