Hey guys.
I'm looking for the name of a russian writer, ending in -sky, maybe it starting with a T.
He should be quite famous, and people keep recommending him, but now I've forgotten the damn name...

Tolsky

I recommend starting with The Death of Ivan Ilyich, which should be in all good short story collections of his. Then move on to Anna Karenin
