Nikolai Gogol was talented enough to catch the notice of not just his contemporaries but his government. Considered one of Russia’s greatest writers during his day, Gogol’s The Overcoat is considered one of Gogol’s most famous works, a bizarre short story that involves Surrealism and supernatural occurrences. Considered one of Gogol’s classics, Dostoyevsky himself noted, "We all come out from Gogol's 'Overcoat'."
