Dear Mr. Taleb: I am very glad you have discovered The Count of Monte Cristo! I wish I were able to read it in the original French (my wife can). This book has such depth and breadth. It is one of my all time favorites. I re-read it every 3-4 years. Funny that you mention Russian authors. I am just about to dive into Vassily Grossman’s two last novels. Life and Fate compares with Monte Cristo in physical weight!
Thank you and take care.
Tom
