Gogol's Art: A Search for Identity is a critical appraisal of the work of the great 19th century Russian writer N.V.Gogol, (1809-1852), who created a new direction in Russian letters. The "Gogolian" trend was further developed by writers like M. Dostoevsky, V.Rozanov, A. Bely, M. Bulgakov and A. Sinyavsky, amongst others.
