The Mantle and Other Stories
Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol
Read by Ben Tucker
Celebrated Ukranian-born author Nikolai Gogol brings us this collection of masterfully grotesque and fantastical stories. These tales are filled with death, madness, ghosts, rampant bureaucracy, the tragedy of human existence, and a mean streak of dark absurdist humor. (Summary by Ben Tucker) (4 hr 58 min)
