About The Golovlyov Family

Saltykov-Shchedrin's 1875–80 dark masterpiece — the provincial Golovlyov family destroying itself through hypocrisy and spiritual emptiness, with Iudushka (Little Judas) as the terrifying central figure: a man who has replaced all genuine feeling with an endless stream of pious, meaningless words; Tolstoy called Iudushka the most terrifying figure in Russian literature.
