Inspired by Gogol's surreal tales, Dostoevsky's hilarious story has been interpreted by some as a vitriolic piece of social criticismThe civil servant Ivan Matveyich and his wife Elena Ivanovna are spectators of an exhibition in a shopping arcade of a crocodile owned by a German, when Ivan is suddenly swallowed alive by the animal. Unsuccessful in his attempts to be freed from his prison, due to the German's concern for his crocodile and excessive desire for compensation, the civil servant gradually comes to appreciate his new environment, while his wife begins to enjoy her newfound freedom."
Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821 1881) is considered one of the greatest writers of all time. His works include such seminal novels as "Crime and Punishment"and" The Karamazov Brothers." Guy Daniels published more than 40 translations, from Russian and French into English."
