Publisher Description
"The Nose" is a satirical short story by Nikolai Gogol. Written
between 1835-1836, it tells of a St. Petersburg official whose nose leaves his
face and develops a life of its own.
Dmitri Shostakovich's opera The Nose, first performed in 1930, is
based on this story. A short film based on the story was made by Alexandre
Alexeieff and Claire Parker in 1963 and used pinscreen animation. A play based
on the short story was written by Tom Swift and produced by The Performance
Corporation in 2008.
