|
Tolstoi |

|
Hemingway and Fitzgerald |
| comments: I know, they're in no way the same. My favorite Hemingway book is his first, 'The Sun Also Rises'. And if F had done nothing besides produce 'The Great Gatsby', he'd still be immortal. |
|
Chekov |
| comments: His short stories are jewels, waiting to be picked up and admired. |
