A classic Satire
InGogol's time in Russia corruption was found in every arm of the government. Petty bureaucrats often pocketed money that was intended for public works. The play exposes backwater greed and corruption by showinghow thoroughly ingrained bribery and lobbying are in to the culture ofsmalltime government officials.

The plot of the play is quite ingenious.Khlestakov, a clerk of some sort, but on the whole an entirely unimportantperson in the government, is in town at the tavern. He's on the verge ofgetting kicked out since he's rung up a huge bill. Just when he's thinksall's lost the Lord provost shows up, pays his bill and start treating himlike he's the cat's pajamas. Slowly Khlestakov realizes that the townspeople think he's an all important Government Inspector and are desperateto bribe wine and dine him so he gives a good report to Petersburg.

Thisplay is a critical social statement about corruption told though thehumorous device of a farce. By making light of the faults of our leaders wemay be able to raise awareness of the problem of corruption and effectmeasures that will lead to change. ... Read more

Great little book
A quick run on the history along with pictures of each model.Great book for it's intention.

the little book of Aston Martin
This book is great! And a pleasant surprise. As the author states in the beginning, it is a "potted history" of Aston Martin. And it does take you on a chronological tour of Aston's journey, with short articles on the important cars. But it really has some interesting facts and little known items about Aston Martin you might not find elsewhere.

It could have benefitted from a more detailed proofreading, as there are a few typos. And the photo on page 96 is of the later V12 DB7 Vantage, not the V8 Vantage described. But this really didn't detract from my enjoyment. Highly recommended. ... Read more
