Gogol' ci regala una galleria di personaggi corrotti e immorali, appartenenti a tutte le classi sociali, le cui anime sono più morte di quelle dei morti.

Quei tre ragazzi che si tuffano in piscina, nudi, di nascosto, entrano come un vento nella vita di Teresa. Sono poco più che bambini, hanno corpi e desideri incontrollati e puri, proprio come lei.

Quanti di noi cominciano abitualmente una conversazione con espressioni come "Scusa se ti disturbo", "non ti ruberò troppo tempo"? Formule all'apparenza innocue, di cortesia, che in realtà nascondono trappole cognitive che ci impediscono di essere davvero efficaci.

"Qui da noi, da sempre, c'è un'abitudine radicata profondamente nella nostra cultura: non si dice mai la verità, soprattutto quando si parla di sé. La frase 'Vede, io sono un uomo fondamentalmente buono' va così tradotta: 'Io sono una carogna, ho subìto troppe umiliazioni nella vita, sono capace di scrivere lettere anonime, delazioni e, spesso, ho pagato degli iettatori professionisti per nuocere ai miei amici più cari'." L'audiolibro inedito di un maestro dell'umorismo italiano, uno scanzonato e spietato ritratto dei vizi e delle supposte virtù italiche.
