Copia autografata
Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Octavo. (viii), 49pp. Drypoint etchings by Magaril throughout capture the distorted narrative of Gogol's text. Magaril also hand-lettered the pages with flourished text in brown ink, simulating the protagonist's fragmented cognitive condition. The result of Magaril's work is an expressive, multi-modal reprinting of one of Gogol's foremost contributions to the canon of Russian literature. Bound in heavy linen over boards with spine cords exposed. Fine. Housed in clamshell box. One of fifty copies, signed by the illustrator.
