The Sexual Labyrinth of Nikolai Gogol

Through careful textual readings of Gogols most famous works, Karlinsky argues that Gogols homosexual orientation-which Gogol himself could not accept or forgive in himself-may provide the missing key to the riddle of Gogols personality.

"A brilliant new biography that will long be prized for its illuminating psychological insights into Gogols actions, its informative readings of his fiction and drama, and its own stylistic grace and vivacity."-Edmund White, Washington Post Book World
