Were any of the books good enough to be worth reading today just for aesthetics?

I am a literature professor and no.
"Aesthetics" implies enjoyment, and we could hardly allow ourselves to enjoy anything conscientiously while people are starving to death in Africa.

At the very least we should choose to only read books written by those people.

Are those really Socialist realism or just continuing the Russian realist tradition of the 19th century? Haven't read any of them, just asking.

Haven't read it, but I heard a lot of praise here for Life and Fate by Vassily Grossman.
