Nikolai Gogol
| A small corrupt Russian town receives a letter informing them of the imminent visit of a government inspector traveling incognito—and accordingly a passing civil servant is mistakenly flattered and bribed. A classic satire of bureaucracy. Translation and introduction by Stephen Mulrine. |
