Through careful textual readings of Gogol's most famous works,
Karlinsky argues that Gogol's homosexual orientation--which Gogol
himself could not accept or forgive in himself--may provide the
missing key to the riddle of Gogol's personality.
"A brilliant new biography that will long be prized for its
illuminating psychological insights into Gogol's actions, its
informative readings of his fiction and drama, and its own
stylistic grace and vivacity."--Edmund White, "Washington Post Book
World"
