Chichikov seeks to purchase "dead souls," the names of serfs who have died but are still listed as living in the official census records. His motive is to acquire these "dead souls" as a form of collateral, which he can then use to acquire a loan and rise in social status.As Chichikov travels through the countryside, he encounters various landowners and government officials, each with their own quirks and idiosyncrasies. Through these encounters, Gogol satirizes and criticizes the corrupt bureaucracy, social hierarchy, and moral decay of Russian society in the 19th century.The title "Dead Souls" reflects the metaphorical weight and emptiness of the souls Chichikov seeks to acquire. The novel explores themes of greed, moral bankruptcy, and the dehumanizing effect of societal norms and expectations.Gogols writing style in "Dead Souls" is characterized by its dark humor, vivid descriptions, and the use of grotesque and exaggerated characters. He employs satire and irony to expose the flaws and absurdities of the Russian social structure and its characters motivations.</p>...6866310Dead Souls1919https://www.gandhi.com.mx/dead-souls-9789358856842/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6767941/image.jpg?v=638724432117030000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259789358856842_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_<p>The novel follows the story of Chichikov, a mysterious and enigmatic protagonist who arrives in a provincial Russian town with a peculiar plan.
