Close Reading: The Nose
Close Reading: The Nose at Amélie's French Bakery & Café | Park Road in Charlotte, NC on Sunday, May 31, 2026.
Imagine you wake up one morning only to find your nose is missing - how embarrassing! As you leave your home, you discover that your nose has taken on a life of its own and refuses to return to your face. It even gets promoted above you at work! This is the experience of Major Kovalyov in the absurdist Russian short story, The Nose by Nikolai Gogol. This is an influential short story in Russian literature, serving as a comedic social commentary on bureaucracy, careerism, and inequality more generally. Join us for a discussion of The Nose. All are welcome, but please read ahead of time! (it is short) Here's a link.
