The Overcoat

“… my heart, generally quite calm, began to beat”

In the department … It’s better not to say in which department, served one official, who was unremarkable, low, slightly speckled, with wrinkles on both cheeks. His surname was Bashmachkin. Name – Akaky Akakievich. It was hard to find a person who was so devoted to his position. He served not only carefully, – he served with love. The titular adviser was scoffed by everyone who presses on those who are not able to bite.

However, in his rewriting he imagined his diverse and pleasant world.

And a peaceful life of a person would have gone to a very old age, if there had not been various disasters scattered on the road of life – a bright guest appeared in the life of our hero in the form of an Overcoat, which greatly changed his miserable life.
