Where do I find Russian literature in English?

Question by krassi_pl_bg: Where can I find Russian literature translated in English?
I search mostly literature from the 20th century – Ivan Bunin, Alexander Kuprin, Maxim Gorki, Alexander Blok, Vladimir Mayakovski, Sergey Esenin, Alexander Fadeev and so on. Thank you in advance! 🙂

It really depends on the individual author and publisher. Be careful, however, because not all translations are of the same quality — and this can really affect your reading experience.

I’m more a fan of 19th century Russian literature, so my heroes are Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Gogol, Lermontov, Pushkin, Turgenev and Chekhov. I’ve read many of their works and have found the translations to be wildly inconsistent. The best I’ve seen were those done by Vladimir Nabokov (yes, THAT Nabokov!) and his son, Dmitri.

Good luck and good reading!
