Akaky is dedicated to his job, though little recognized in his department for his hard work. Instead, the younger clerks tease him and attempt to distract him whenever they can. His threadbare overcoat is often the butt of their jokes. Akaky decides it is necessary to have the coat repaired, so he takes it to his tailor, Petrovich, who declares the coat irreparable. Read in Russian, unabridged, by Sergei Yursky.

Повесть Гоголя 'Шинель' открывает неисчерпаемую тему 'маленького человека' в русской литературе. Мелкий чиновник Акакий Акакиевич безответно сносит лишения и насмешки окружающих. Нелепый, бесправный, смешной человек мечтает о 'чуде' - новой шинели! Именно она занимает все его мысли и становится смыслом жизни. Режиссер: Александр Валенский. Музыка: Владимир Романычев. Исполнитель: Сергей Юрский
