Title: “Nevsky Prospect” and “The Nose” Author: Nikolai Gogol Nationality: Russian Type: Illustrated book Number of pages: 24 Illustrations: Maria José Matamala & Camila Navas Rothlisberger Influenced strongly by the Sentimental movement, the protagonist of “Nevsky Prospekt” is a pathetic and insignificant romantic, the narrator is chatty and unreliable, (along the lines of Tristram Shandy, the definitive Sentimental novel) and realism dominates. The story is organized symmetrically; the narrator describes Nevsky Prospekt in great detail, then the plot splits to follow in turn two acquaintances, each of whom follows a beautiful woman whom he has seen on the street.
