Can you recommend some best fictional Russian books?

I'd also recommend 'Dead Souls' by Nikolai Gogol. It's a satirical novel that critiques Russian society at the time, especially the bureaucracy and the concept of serfdom. It has some really interesting and vivid characters.

Sure. 'War and Peace' is a classic. It's a huge novel that gives a panoramic view of Russia during the Napoleonic Wars. 'Doctor Zhivago' is also great. It's set during the Russian Revolution and shows how the upheaval affected people's lives. And 'The Master and Margarita' is a unique work that combines different historical elements with magic and satire.

Sure. 'The Doomed City' by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky is a must - read. It's set in a strange, utopian - dystopian city where the rules are constantly changing. It makes you think about society, freedom, and the nature of reality.

I would recommend 'The Great Gatsby'. It's a story of love, wealth, and the American Dream. The characters are complex, and the writing is beautiful. Fitzgerald's description of the Jazz Age and the parties at Gatsby's mansion are very vivid. Also, 'Harry Potter' series is a must - read. It's a magical world filled with witches, wizards, and amazing adventures that have charmed millions of readers worldwide.

'Travel Team' is a great pick. It's not just about basketball games but also about the relationships between the players. It shows how they grow together and support each other through tough times.

Another great one is 'Big Little Lies' by Liane Moriarty. It starts as a seemingly ordinary story about the lives of some suburban women but soon unfolds into a complex web of secrets, lies, and a murder mystery. It's a great blend of domestic drama and thriller elements.

Sure. 'War and Peace' by Leo Tolstoy is a great historical fiction. It covers the Napoleonic Wars and the impact on Russian society. It's a very detailed and long - read but worth it. Another one is 'The Red Tent' which is based on the story of Dinah from the Bible. It gives a different view of the ancient times. 'The Kite Runner' is also a good one, set in Afghanistan, showing the history and the changing times of the country.

Sure. 'The Hunger Games' trilogy by Suzanne Collins. Katniss Everdeen is a great example of a reluctant leader. She steps up to protect her sister and then becomes a symbol of hope for the districts against the Capitol's tyranny.

Sure. 'The Boxer' by K.C. Constantine is a great one. It tells a story full of action and drama in the boxing scene.

Sure. 'The Longest Yard' is a good one. It's about football in prison. Then there's 'The Legend of Bagger Vance' which is set in the world of golf. And 'North Dallas Forty' that gives a look at the dark side of professional football.
