Let's discuss Russian literature and what makes them

Haven't read good Russian literature yet and I've gone through the big names.

"Is cold, just like my Orthodox father when I was but little cossack. One day I will be serf, but what is meaning of life? My wife is getting ugly, I no love her anymore. I miss baboushka and her kabanosy every day. Gulag is hard work, I miss warmth of woman. And then I learned life lesson and book ended."

Shitty living conditions, but they're still white, so they can at least articulate their experiences through writing in a profound and meaningful way.

Most russian greats were artistocrats who owned actual lands and slaves. They were basically the last greeks. Dostoevsky got himself rekt because he was retarded but his overall life was simple.
