My Death by Lisa Tuttle (Farsi)
Description
The Nose by Nikolai Vasil’evich Gogol is a satirical short story that humorously critiques the rigid social hierarchies of imperial Russia. The bizarre tale follows Major Kovalyov, a St. Petersburg official who wakes one morning to discover that his nose has mysteriously disappeared and begun living an independent life as a high-ranking government figure. Divided into three parts, the story begins with a barber who finds the missing nose in a loaf of bread, continues with Kovalyov’s desperate attempts to reclaim his identity and social standing, and ends with an absurd resolution. Blending surreal fantasy, sharp social commentary, and dark humor, Gogol creates a memorable exploration of vanity, bureaucracy, and the absurdities of status and identity.
