OMG Anna Karenina. The Russian novels. The gothic novels like Jane Eyre. Similarities make me love them both so much.
You just made me hungry to read Russian or gothic.
I’ve read:
The Brothers Karamazov
War and Peace
Crime and Punishment
Fathers and Sons (Turgenev)
Jane Eyre
Wuthering Heights
Not sure what other reads fit in this category or if Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights are in a category by themselves.
Recommendations to scratch the itch this post just caused?
Ami the only one who has an itchy reading spot that can be equallly satisfied by Russian or gothic novels? What do they have in common that I love?

The Two princes in the Tower disappeared without a trace and were believed to have been killed by their uncle who became king in their places.

I just have to encourage everyone to read Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning. That book and Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People by Rabbi Harold Kushner are my guides to make sense of the world.
