«Almas Mortas» is the satirical novel by Nikolái Gógol, translated into Portuguese by José António Machado.
Pável Ivánovich Chíchikov travels through rural Russia, buying from landowners the names of their deceased serfs, still registered in the census. Those «dead souls» are his plan to obtain credit and social standing. Gógol turns the journey into a satire of the bureaucracy and corruption of his era.
The edition published by Relógio D'Água has 288 pages. The work originally appeared in 1842.
Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol was a Russian novelist, short-story writer, and playwright of Ukrainian origin.
