I love Gogol too, user, but Souls is unfinished and Onegin should be granted novel status (novel in verse) so I'm going with Pushkin there. Fair list.
Gulag Archipelago
Crime and Punishment
Demons
Fine
Pleb
Trying too hard, they're good but not the best

Also you literally CAN'T translate Petersburg in any other language. This shit so crazy with words that even for native speakers it is a real challenge.
I was the same way. Behemoth a CUTE!

Gogol refused to be called Russian and literally said that the entire ukrainian identity is just a number of peasant brainlets who couldnt figure out the russian grammar so they just wrote with no grammar whatsoever

The Brothers Karamazov
