      @@RussianwithLilian I found some, thanks, prose as well as poetry from the looks of it? And a few critiques, it look like. I am sure there is something in the group to try. Nice something to do with the tv OFF. I still prefer a solid book to a tablet, but am grateful I have the access. Rain finally due here after a few 90+ degree days are cancelling watching the sunset.

    Brigitte L Jones. This was a very enlightening story.Despite having studied many years ago some Russian Literature, only novels I'd have never ever un earthed this background story of Pushkin's grandfather.

      Okay, here we go, if you're really serious.
      The world recognizes significant contribution of the Russian language to global culture in literature.
      Leo Tolstoy: His novels, such as "War and Peace" and "Anna Karenina," are considered masterpieces of world literature. They explore complex themes of human existence, morality, and society.
      Fyodor Dostoevsky: works like "Crime and Punishment" and "The Brothers Karamazov" explore psychological and philosophical questions, influencing countless writers and thinkers worldwide.
      Alexander Pushkin: often regarded as the founder of modern Russian literature, his works, including "Eugene Onegin" and "The Captain's Daughter," have had a profound impact on Russian culture and beyond.
