I would advise your reading Dostoevskiy's The Idiot and The Karamazows Brothers beyond The Crime and Punishmet, you won't feel him comprehensively without them. But the list is already huge. I've had the same when passing the 19th cen. world literature, uh!
Hopefully I'll post my review on Rushdie (just finished his Midnight's Children - tremendous!, but unfortunately in Russian) here in the journal, and I'll do it in English - mostly analysis of his style and the ways of possible translation. But I don't really know when, too much work all the time. So we'll compare impessions, if everything's all right.
