Book Riot's 50 Must-Reads of Slavic Literature

"When people make lists about Slavic literature, very often (almost always) they're about the Russian classics. Obviously, the Russian classics are worth our attention as well, and Book Riot has made a couple such lists—including a recommendations list of 5 short Russian classics. But there's a whole wealth of Slavic literature out there—works from Belarus, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Macedonia, Montenegro, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia, and Ukraine. This is a list of 50 recommendations, all musts of Slavic literature."
