Pirogov, this work's narrator considers buying a beaver collar and sending a parody of the officer to Fatherland Notes.  
After quarreling with an officer that he compares to Gogol's Lt. Pirogov, this work's narrator considers buying a beaver collar and sending a parody of the officer to Fatherland Notes.  This occurs in its second part, which contains two epigraphs from N.A. Nekrasov, where the narrator discusses wet snow and borrows money from his valet Anton to join Simonov at dinner.  That narrator earlier alludes to Turgenev by noting that twice two is four with or without his free will, though he anticipates his reader's objections by claiming that he gets joy from the pains in his tooth and liver.  FTP, name this work beginning, "I am a sick man, I am a spiteful man," a proto-existentialist novella by Fyodor Dostoevsky.
