Reminder that he's the best Russian author but /lit/ hardly talks about him.

You should read Petersburg. It is the most fantastic piece of Russian lit out there. Just make sure it's the full, unedited text. I believe those are the McDuff and the Elsworth translations. You won't regret it

Bely was a Russian author that many liken to Joyce for the complexity of the language in his books (unfortuantely much of this is lost in translation but it's still worth a read). He was really into the occult and anthroposphy. Pretty eccentric dude. Petersburg is his masterpiece and in my opinion the best work in Russian lit. Also he looked like Borat.
