Excellent read, however...
...little confused about the ending. '"You vill haf a gofernment apartment, mit firewood, mit licht, und mit serfices, vich you don't deserve," Krestyan Ivanovich's reply came sternly and terribly, like a verdict. Our hero cried out and clutched his head. Alas! he had lon forseen it!' Would somebody be able to explain this? thanks
