#RussianLit Stack @bookcollecter

Whose your favorite Russian writer?

"No Russian writer belonged more to his age than Dostoevsky, whose imagination was bred not only on Schiller and the 'Gothic' school but also on the daily newspapers, with their Stark record of crime and misery. The Brothers Karamazov was above all a tract for the times, in which he would concentrate 'all the horror of our age'(109).

Redwritinghood Definitely Dostoyevsky. 6y
bookcollecter I would have to agree with you 6y
zsuzsanna_reads Tolstoy. 6y
