Find us at 11 Sarsfield St. V94 K330. Bookstores: a refuge in the face of the current preponderance of digital formats - see: elpais.com/cultura/2024-09-2…

The OVERCOAT, a short story by Nikolay Gogol, is perhaps the best-known and most influential short fiction in all of Ukrainian/East European literature. Tickets (which are free) for the event may be booked here: eventbrite.ie/e/the-overcoat… “We all came out from Gogol’s ‘Overcoat,’” it has been said. Although published in 1842, the short story still raises questions that challenge us even today.
