I’m a big fan of “War and Peace”, one of the odd things I collect is cards of Leo Tolstoy, including vintage Eastern European postcards of him. I enjoy Dostoevsky as well. Turgenev’s “Fathers and Sons” is a favorite, though I’m probably missing the full experience by not understanding Russian and doing them in translation.
