A satire on the ways of the aristocracy. After the revolution, the bourgeois Nedopluev loses his appetite and sleep. Neither medicine nor the regimens prescribed by the doctor help him.

The next time, Nedoplyuev puts on a workman’s overalls. Very soon he is cured of his ailment, becomes healthy and energetic, eats enough for three and smokes only makhorka.
