I was just wondering if any of you could recommend a good Russian Lit book. I really enjoy Dostoevsky, Gogol and Nabokov. The more morality driven, the better. Thank you.

If you haven't read Brothers Karamazov, start there.

I would also recommend Chekhov if you are not adverse to plays. Seagull is my personal favourite, but I haven't read a Chekhov play I didn't like.

Anna Karenina if you haven't read it, by Tolstoy.

I'll second Anton Chekhov. I haven't read any of his plays, but I have read a couple of his short stories; Ward No. 6 and On the Road
