In college, I had to read this in Russian. Didn't get all of it, but enjoyed what I got. I have to read it in English one of these days (and then in Russian again, and then in English, i tak dalyee).
I own a copy like the one pictured; a fantastically illustrated Russian version. I think designers and illustrators can really have a field day with this story because it's so out there.

خواندن گوگول همیشه لذت بخش است، به ویژه آثاری چون "بینی"، "بالاپوش" یا آن گونه که به فارسی ترجمه شده؛ "شنل" و البته نمایش نامه هایش مانند "بازرس" که بارها در ایران روی صحنه رفته است.

I LOVE GOGOL!!!!! And this is the book that opened up my world to this genius. It is still my top favorite of his, maybe because it was my first experience into this man beautiful mind or maybe because it is perfectly written...you make the call

Absolutely fantastic comedy. A guy wakes up one morning without a nose and Gogol entertains us with infinite possibilities and genius imagination.

One of my all-time favorite short stories. Like most of Gogol's stuff, this is hilarious.
