Russians! You just can’t get around them when it comes to great literature. This new ebook is a classic: The Cloak, by Gogol. Sometimes translated by The Overcoat. The story seems pretty straight forward: a clerk (see, we seem to come around clerks lately…) called Akaky Akakievich Bashmachkin, needs a new coat. Sounds like a simple task. How often do we simply tick away such a task missing the opportunity to turn this into a story that is pivot in the history of literature? Well, Akaky Akakievich first couldn’t afford one, but soon some fortune came upon him. You can call it misfortune too (fates have always had this joy in toying with humans). He gets a fancy new coat, he gets all the social attention he craved for. And even more than he craved for. Like all great Russian stories, he dies in the end, but you’d think the story ended there? If you want to know the torments that haunted Akaky Akakievici’s life and, well, death, click the link below to get a free copy of The Cloak.

And if that didn’t convince you enough to visit Gogol’s The Cloak, please listen to Dostoevsky saying: “We all come out from Gogol’s Overcoat“.
