"Dead Souls" by Gogol is one of the most important novels in Russian classic literature, perfectly connecting Russian and Ukranian cultures in unique and grotesque form of tragicomedy. It is considered by many as Russian "Devine Comedy", but here in this video I try to prove, that it is more likely Russian "Odyssey". Enjoy!
