If peasants getting drunk and doing stupid things amuses you, if the devil being outfoxed by said peasants sounds interesting and if constantly worrying about your class status is something you do, then these short stories are probably for you.
They were not for me. Thankfully, this was the last of Gogol. There are some plays left, but I’m not going to bother.
★★☆☆☆
