Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Family of Noblemen" is a satirical novel penned by using Mikhail Evgrafovich Saltykov, a distinguished Russian creator and satirist. The novel, serves as a scathing critique of the Russian nobility and societal norms time-honored for the duration of the nineteenth century. The narrative revolves around the Golovlyov family, an aristocratic family steeped in decadence, ethical degradation, and an insatiable desire for wealth and electricity. The relevant determine is Porfiry Golovlyov, a tyrannical and despotic landowner whose moves and decisions form the fate of the family. As the narrative unfolds, Saltykov exposes the ethical decay and hypocrisy within the aristocracy, portraying the characters as embodiments of corruption and ethical financial disaster. Saltykov's use of satire and irony is a powerful observation at the societal and political troubles of his time. Through the lens of the Golovlyov family, he criticizes the oppressive nature of the Russian autocracy, the exploitation of peasants, and the moral shortcomings of the the Aristocracy. "A Family of Noblemen" is a darkish and biting portrayal of a decaying social magnificence and the outcomes of unchecked privilege.

Book excerpt: The Golovyov Family is a thought-provoking and powerfully written novel. Recognized as a classic since it first publication in Russia in 1880, it recounts the history of a family of landowners through three generations. In a letter written shortly after the book’s publication, the author reflected that "I wrote The Golovyov Family as an attack on the family principal." As Russian scholar Carl Proffer wrote: "Gogol has been passed from school to school for thirteen decades. Even Bulgakov, who regarded Saltykov-Schhedrin as his teacher, who is the most satirical writer after Saltykov, and whose main works were unpublished until ten years ago, has been written about by representatives of many different critical sects. That Saltykov's works have not had this kind of appeal is somewhat puzzling. Even a Freudian novice could work Oedipal themes out of the autobiographical elements in The Golovlyov Family, and the Tartu University school could draw complex diagrams to show how The Golovyov Family is that most wonderful of all things, a "unified whole." It is time that Saltykov stopped being the exclusive property of critics whose primary concerns are sociological or historical. As the reader of The Golovlyov Family will see with considerable pleasure Saltykov’s prose has much more to offer than not."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Family of Noblemen : The Gentlemen Golovliov The head of the family, Vladimir Mikhailych Golovliov, was known from his youth as a dissolute, quarrelsome fellow, with nothing in his character that would be sympathetic to a serious, active woman like Arina Petrovna. He led a lazy, good-for-nothing existence, usually stayed locked up in his room, where he imitated the warble of the starlings, the crowing of cocks, and the like, and composed ribald doggerel. In bursts of confidence he would boast that he had been a friend of the poet Barkov, intimating that the poet had blessed him on his deathbed. Arina Petrovna disliked her husband's verses from the very first. "Nasty stuff!" "Trash!" she called them. And since Vladimir Mikhailych's very object in marrying had been to have someone ever at hand to listen to his poetry, the result was that quarrels soon began, which grew worse and worse and more frequent until they ended with Arina Petrovna utterly indifferent and contemptuous of her clown husband, and Vladimir Mikhailych hating his wife sincerely, with a hatred considerably mixed with fear. The husband called the wife a "hag" and a "devil"; the wife called the husband a "windmill" and a "balalaika without strings." They lived together in this way for more than forty years, and it never occurred to either of them that there was anything unnatural in such a life. Time did not diminish Vladimir Mikhailych's quarrelsomeness; on the contrary, it took on a still sharper edge. Apart from the poetical exercising in Barkov's spirit that he did, he began to drink and to lie in wait eagerly for the servant girls in the corridors. At first Arina Petrovna looked on this new occupation of her husband's with repugnance. She even got wrought up over it, not so much from jealousy as that she felt it to be an interference with her authority. After a while, however, she shrugged her shoulders, and merely watched out that the "dirty wenches" should not fetch brandy for their master.
