Lisa Lambe in The Nose
St Petersburg, December. 1829. It’s snowing outside, the Tsar’s in his palace and all is well with the world… well, not quite. Major Kovalyev’s nose has gone missing – to be precise, it’s gallivanting round town and is proving a real hit with the ladies. To make matters worse, the nose is refusing to return to its rightful place, just above the Major’s abundant whiskers and square between the eyes.
