These translations of Gogol's plays restore the vitality of Gogol's language and humour, finally allowing his dramatic art to speak directly to Western readers, directors, actors and theatre-goers. This volume contains ""The Government Inspector"" and ""Marriage"" - Gogol's greatest full-length plays - and a one-act satire, ""The Gamblers"". Also included are writings on theatre from Gogol's notebooks and correspondences, as well as an appendix and extensive introduction.
