Why is Russian literature so fucking good?
Because.
suffering
because their tv blows
Soul
Because it shatters you in all the right ways and offers quite a catharsis.
Name some good Russian writers aside from the three or four obvious ones everybody circlejerks like Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, etc.
There are at least 6 russian writers that are frequently circlejerked around.
fag
that's a reader's perspective, I think OP is asking from the writer/ cultural landscape.
Strong and intertwined suffering and faith makes for a perfect storm.
Also Russian is an exquisite language, thoroughly able in mapping both earth and sky while having melody.
The 19th century sure was a bad time for TV shows.
