Is Russia the country as comfy as Russian literature?

Yes, it's extensive yet mostly devoid of content.

Not for Americans

>Russian literature is comfy
You didn't understand it. Russian literature is deeply introspective and therefore challenging. And so is Russia.

I love old Russian lit (especially Gogol and some of dostos short stories) but comfy is not the word I'd use to describe them.
Also Russian anons who have read Gogol, is modern day Russia still similar to how Gogol described it in terms of what life is like for the working class and the corruption in the upper levels of society?

>Also Russian

These days it's much worse. Greed and complete lack of consequences (even is someone is openly violates the law) is what driving the changes these days.

Is Mafia something most people are exposed to in every day life?

Is Tolstoy Comfy? I want to read War and Peace end of this year. Can any Jow Forumslit/ user guide me or make comments?

>Russian literacy
>comfy
The fuck have you read

Also funny that all the non whites in this thread read white authors. Not the other way round I'm telling you

Whites don't read anymore. Whites don't write anymore.

>slavs are just white when we need them to bully loos
this smells, when will they ever learn

>he doesn't read based non-white literature

Well I read Japanese and Chinese literature (no, not manga shit). But I consider them kind of white

You gonna need more than a year friend

Honestly nobody gives a shit what you consider whom

(((Russian))) mafia is a meme that exists only on Brighton Beach.

Is St. Petersburg in real life like Crime and Punishment? Hot, sticky and full of Finnish beggars and Germans?

the "drama" portions of war and peace are supremely charming once it gets going. it begins with a description of a fancy aristocrat party that i found tedious, but the setting is necessary. just know it gets better.
comfy is definitely not the right word - in fact anywhere you see it on this website it's devoid of meaning. war and peace is at times profoundly depressing, uplifting, and scientific.

I see. So would you say the main problem with Russia is the oligarchs and corruption?

>depressing, uplifting, and scientific.
Why scientific?

seeing as how "Russian literature" is typically set up during the time of serfdom and czars, no way.
it's a modern shitshow like everywhere else, with nightclubs, horrible music taste, and drugs, and supermarkets.

it must be nice to have more patriotism and whites around than in countries with money, though.

These days Finns live better than russians so no way that image of St Petersburg in your head is true.

tolstoy alternates between drama, historical fiction, and scientific/philosophical analysis.
generally each section of the book starts with a big statement about how the historians of his time looked at human nature and how they were wrong... he likes to compare people using analogies to things like melting ice, and anthills, and sometimes uses algebra.

Omfg that's funny

>medium brain
tolstoy, gogol, dostoevsky
>big brain
chekhov, goncharov, andreyev, solovyov
>galactic brain
kazantsev

for me, it's solzhenitsyn.

I think Chekov is in the same category as Bulgakov though. Small to Medium.

>Russian literature
I always thought it's kinda miserable. Like Jack London's pieces.

>how original, and funny.

>Not the other way round
It's the other way around, you guys read "vodkaniggers, snowniggers, mongoloids, subhuman" literature and afaics you even like it. So it's not that funny at all.

Problem with people in general. Low class constantly whine about upper class corruption, but they do this all the time, in much lesser scale. Russians like law and order, but only when it's applying to everyone except themselves.
