The title "Bestseller" sounds as though the story is to talk and praise the bestsellers.

But in this story Pescud mainly criticizes the bestsellers, saying that they are unrealistic and unbelievable.

In "Happy Event" by Nadine Gordimer, irony is present in the title itself as the story revolves around a tragic event rather than a happy one. Another example of irony is that the protagonist describes himself as lucky despite facing a dire situation, highlighting the contradictory nature of his thoughts and actions. Additionally, the use of dramatic irony can be seen when the reader knows more about the protagonist's situation than he does himself.

How is the title How much land does a man need ironic . What kind of irony it is It is dramatic irony or something else?

I believe that it is more likely to be situational irony. Also the reason why the title itself is ironic is because Tolstoy usually likes to end his stories with a sense of shock and aw. More aw than shock, but for example in the end of the story when Pahom successfully returns to the checkpoint he has unfortunately died. When his servant comes to him, he digs him 6 feet of dirt, which is all he needed. Tolstoy's irony is that even though Pahom bought ALL of the land that he did in his past, he really only needed 6 feet for his grave.
