Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Let's talk about one of the greatest Russian Short Stories of all time this week! The Overcoat (sometimes called The Greatcloak or The Cloak Шинель) by Nikolai Gogol has captured people's hearts with its unique narration and easy to understand themes of old vs new and care for your fellow man. But is there more there? Let's talk about Bureaucracy, Blizzards and Fate, and the translations of the names that many miss in a translation. Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzdqkkUKpfRIbCXmiFvqxIw?sub_confirmation=1Nikolai Gogol Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuQl7MtZdJk&list=PLHg_kbfrA7YBaraHX7luwSsvtEvPWuJqaTABLE OF CONTENTS:#NikolaiGogolYou can reach us on Social Media:▶ http://instagram.com/thecodexcantina▶ http://twitter.com/thecodexcantina====Copyright Info====Song: InfiniteArtist: ValenceLicensed to YouTube by: AEI (on behalf of NCS); Featherstone Music (publishing), and 1 Music Rights SocietiesFree Download/Stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHoqD47gQG8--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecodexcantina/support
