Who is better: Stephanie Meyer , Fyodor Dostoevsky, or Lev Tolstoy?

Obviously, these three writers are among the best Russian writers that there ever were.

Lev Tolstoy (or as you capitalist Americans call him, "Leo" Tolstoy) wrote great works such as War and Peace, a treatise on the War on Terror.

Fyodor Dostoevsky wrote the Brothers Karamazov, a famous book about brothas' who live in the tough neighborhoods of Watts and later move to Harlem.

Stephanie Meyer, of course, wrote the now famous Twilight. Sadly, this wonderful book only became famous posthumously after her death in the Russian Revolution. Just like the great Alexander Pushkin, she died young.

Which one of the three titans of Russian literature would you consider the best? Personally, I would have to say Stephenie Meyer, as she DID inspire works such as Stoker's Dracula and Twain's Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

How could you ask a question about such grand Russian authors without recognizing J.R.R. Tolkien's staggering contributions to Russian literature? His Lord of the Rings novels were the greatest symbolical satires of the Ukrainian Marxist revolution ever written. The metaphor of Sauron as the Bourgeoisie and the orcs of Mordor as the Proletariat were a stroke of ironic genius. Even today, The Return of the King remains the most effectual rebuttal to the works of both Freidrich Neitzche and Karl Marx, possibly surpassed only by J.K. Rowling's "Chamber of Secrets".

I know this was a question from a few years back, but how could you compare such great authors(Fyodor Dostoevsky and Lev Tolstoy) with Stephanie Meyer? Stephanie Meyer is utter **** between these significant authors. I prefer Fyodor Dostoevsky over Lev Tolstoy. But earnestly, the question should just be "Who is better: Fyodor Dostoevsky or Lev Tolstoy" because Meyer is a nice author but nothing compared to the two people regarded as the greatest authors of all time.

Haha; Stephanie Meyer didn't live back then and she's not Russian. But that's what makes it funny.
