No Tolstoy? No Dostoyevsky?

It is truly a dilemma to try to figure out which books are worth one's time...but a pleasant dilemma.

Tolstoy and Dostoyevksi (one of my personal favorites) were more novelists than philosophers. They injected their beliefs through their characters rather than write scholarly works on these subjects. Although anyone with pretense toward being educated would have read them.
