Dead Souls is a socially critical black comedy. Set in Russia
before the emancipation of serfs in 1861, the "dead souls" are dead
serfs still being counted by landowners as property, as well as
referring to the landowners' morality. Through surreal and often
dark comedy, Gogol criticizes Russian society after the Napoleonic
Wars. He intended to also offer solutions to the problems he
satirized, but died before he ever completed the second part of
what was intended to be a trilogy. The work famously ends
mid-sentence.
