Gogol's phantasmagorical tale about a man whose nose decides to abscond and begin living a life of its own is one of the earliest and most celebrated examples of absurdist literature. Apart from its recondite humor, it is remarkable for Gogol's skill in characterization and his ability to paint a picture of contemporary life in Russia in a few verbal brushstrokes.

I’m not sure why this is even on audible: the voice of the narrator is a computer (think Siri, etc). The characters are voiced by people, and the difference is quite jarring.
