>Edith Södergran >"the most famous Finnish author"
While I love her poetry, and while I really wouldn't mind calling her the best Finnish author, I think that Tove Jansson, Mika Waltari and Elias Lönrot are all much more famous than her.

How does this shit even work?Do they all hand out the award based on reading translations?
There's nothing wrong with translations, tryhard.
You dont think it matters for the most important literary prize?
Probably anti-communist pro-Amerishart propaganda slop or "my struggles as a israeli lesbian"
Gogol was ethnical Ukrainian, so Shevchenko vs Gogol is open to discussion.
>in b4 Bu-ut he wrote in Russian.
Yes, and Oscar Wilde wrote in English.
similarly listing Kafka for the Czech Republic feels dishonest
Jaroslav Hašek would be a better choice.
Nah, the majority of his biographers agree, that he was Ukrainian (or Little Russian then).
Nikolai = Russian first name
Gogol = Polish last name
Ukrainians don't exist.
So, a noname from IQfy knows better than biographers of Gogol.
Yes
>Gogol = Polish last name
Kek. Any other known Polish Hohols?
Shut up, monolingual
He was ethnically Polish.

Svetlana is good author anons?
She writes non-fiction as I know. So she is pretty good for those themes which she describes (if you are interested in them).
I would recommend to try "King Stakh's Wild Hunt" by Uladzimir Karatkievich, if you are interested in Belarusian fiction.
