It has been compared with French lit for as long as I read, but it has too many misses

i do think tolstoy is the best fiction writer in classic literature. and Nabokov is just behind him. But in terms of books, there's more artistically great French books than great Russian ones.

The issues are different each time so I can't provide an accurate answer to your question ^^
