Russian Authors

[Skweeky]

My favourite Russian book is 'The Death of Iwan Iljits', written by Leo Tolstoj.
It's about a man who gets ill and think about his life right before he dies and the reaction of his family on it. It's very dark and cynical, but I loved it, a true masterpiece.

Anna Karenina by Tolstoy

[ToraBoraDweller]

I once started reading War and Peace by Tolstoj ,that was years ago and I still have to finish it.
I do like the literary style but if you have also seen the movie ....(dedication & time&#33 B)

In general I also like Russian fairytales :they are spookier than in other cultures(Baba Yaga)

[Skweeky]

oh yes, Russian fairy tales are definitely very good. I like the ones about that icequeen, very spooky

or
