Quiz with Answers: Guess the Work of Russian Classic Literature from a Brief Description

Why read books if you can find a plot summary online? Why spend hours getting to know the characters if you can read a character profile? A retelling is no substitute for reading. Readers who choose this way of engaging with literature miss the very essence of it. Reading is a conversation with the author. It lets you feel the atmosphere of the book, grow to love or hate the characters, and live another life... It is impossible to understand a work from someone else’s retelling, just as it is impossible to recognize a work from a description if you do not know its plot, theme, and characters.
