The Nose (Four Corners Familiars)

The Nose is a satirical short story with an unlikely protagonist. Taking on a life of its own, the nose of a St. Petersburg official leaves its rightful place to cause havoc in the city.

This edition of the classic story by Nikolai Gogol includes photographs by artist Rick Buckley documenting a Gogol-inspired street intervention where he fixed plaster noses on to buildings all over London. The cover is also something of a nose.
