>this is the best Russia has to offer

Honestly - how can Russians even compete?

There's not much to build off of the best novel ever written pseud

>American literature
Transcendental, uplifting while plunging through the depths of human experience, see Melville, Whitman, James and Faulkner
>Russian "literature"
Life sucks, but work for Tsar anyway because God says so.

Alternate:
God sucks, but you're a crybaby if you talk about it.

Why do Americans have such huge boner for anything Russian?

Maybe they serve as a foil to America

Honestly

Russian lit is good for someone depressed, American lit is good for more educated normies who are passionate about life

Daily reminder that all american greatest writers are either jewish or irish.

With goofs, gags, jokes and rambunctious behavior.

>implying russian lit readers are less educated than american lit readers

would you consider Philip Roth to be the best american writer or top5?

Wrong. DeLillo is Italian

Kek underrated post

>Whitman
He was gay xd
Also heisenberg xd

By becoming insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity - amd then inventing surrealism

>le russian literature is good meme

How can involuntary egoists even compete?
