gf is final year Russian student and has a pretty extensive knowledge of Russian literature, something that I don't really know that much about. Christmas is coming up and I want to get her some really good but obscure Russian literature, but I don't really know where to start.
you think you will impress her but theres a better chance at making it obvious how little you know about the subject
Jaxon Cooper
Vodka and a Putin poster

If you have acess to people in russia you can take any other girl here, foreigners in russia have many attention by russian girl and dont need stop in only one girl from here. All tan whores you know it. Foreignes in russia have special respect. It's my main recommendation to you.
You can read in russian? Many good obscure literature have only in russian language
Austin King
I'm not really trying to impress her, just think it would be a nice gesture
Isaiah Brooks
How obscure? Name some lesser-known Russian lit she owns or talks about
Colton Howard
Why less-known? Get her a nice, hardcover copy of Brothers Karamazov or the-like. Maybe Bely's Petersburg if you want something a bit different. But stick to the classics unless you actually know what she likes. No student of Russian will toss out a quality edition of War and Peace.
Ian Brown
In Russian, obviously. Get her a book with the text in RUSSIAN.
Liam Green
That's a good shout. I mean, I know a couple of things she likes, like Anna Achmatova and Yevgeny Zamyatin, don't think she thinks much of Dosty
John Jones
>don't think she thinks much of Dosty
you have a stupid bitch of a girlfriend, is she hot atleast?
Joseph Perez
Dosty is fucking pleb garbage and regarded as such in the Russia literary canon
Liam Butler
Пpocтo выeби eё, oчeвиднo жe.
Eli Morgan
Dostoyevsky isn't more prominent in the Russian literary consciousness because of decades of Soviet hegemony, which opposed him because of his opposition to its eventual ascendancy. Fortunately the rest of the world recognized his merits
Dominic Gutierrez
Actually just found out it's tolstoy she's not a huge fan of. I mixed it up– she likes Dosty and isn't a huge fan of Tolstoy
Brody Watson
Post pics of her bookshelf
Aiden Morris
That makes it worse
Austin Stewart
Tolstoy is bad, my dude
Thomas Lewis
Get her Petersburg, the novel
Jaxon Brown
Andrei Bely probably would be fun for her.
Nathaniel Rivera
Get her Oпaвшиe Лиcтья
Ryder Moore
By Rozanov
Levi Edwards
Viktor Pelevin? Danill Kharms? Don't know how obscure they're considered tho.
Charles Thompson
Complete edition of Daria Dontzova books is your choice.
Kevin Barnes
How much money are you planning to spend? (pic is 120 dallars)
16 Soviet story writers catching the exact moment it all fell down. Tatianna Tolstaya is the giant of the bunch. Yes, she's related. Fire and Dust will be anthologized for decades. She'll appreciate owning this.
Nathan Collins
Definitely Bely's Petersburg
Cameron Butler
Recently read a collection of young russian authors in german, so no idea if you'd ever find those in english but I liked Alissa Ganiyeva,Valeri Pecheykin and Polina Klyukina the most. Other than that, something by Venedikt Yerofeev or Limonov wouldn't hurt either
Connor Nguyen
Forgot about Gelasimov and Babchenko
Ryan Gomez
Is she /our guy/?
John Martin
deez fucking nuts. Tolstoy is fucking epic:
>Hadji Murad >War and Peace >Anna Karenina >Ivan Ilych >The Kreutzer Sonata >...
