果戈里是一个要求自己十分严格的作家。他的每一部作品,都要经过反复推敲,一再修改。他对自己认为不满意的作品,毫不惋惜,往往就付之一焚,不管是已经完成的作品,或者是多年辛勤劳动的结晶。有一次,他请当时的名诗人茹科夫斯基来评价他的一个新剧。一吃完午饭,他就开始朗读起来。可是,年老的诗人有午睡的习惯,他无法抗拒睡魔,静静地打起盹来。过了一会儿,才又睁开眼。 “你看,华西里·安特里维奇,”果戈里向诗人说,“我希望听到你的意见,而你的瞌睡就是最好的批评。”说完话,果戈里就把自己的新剧本投入了火中。 Gogol is a writer who demands that he be very strict. Each of his works, after repeated scrutiny, repeated changes. He laments what he or she is not satisfied with, often regretting it and often settling it on fire, whether it be a finished work or a crystallization of years of hard work. On one occasion, he asked the famous poet Zhukovsky to evaluate one of his new plays. He started reading aloud after lunch. However, the old poet has the habit of nap, he can not resist the sleeping magic, quietly nap. After a while, I opened my eyes again. “Look, Huseyin Antrich,” said Gogol to the poet. “I want to hear your opinion, and your drowsiness is the best critic.” " Gori put his new script into the fire.
