The Nose is by Nikolai Gogol. A bizarre historical fiction novella about a Russian apparatchik who wakes up one morning to discover his nose is gone. While looking for his nose, he discovers it roaming around town, and apparently his nose has a higher position in society than its former owner. A very Russian version of Kafka-esque writing.
Ratings: 10th grade - 8 out of 10.
