Like Rav Moishe Shternbach? Rav Zelik Epstien?
If you want to go this road, start a new thread.
I still don’t understand. Either way there is no reason to read jewish novels, either read Tanach & seforim if you need the “spiritual aspect”, or Pushkin if you don’t.
Of course, there are some real (actually happened) stories (such as “Nine Out of Ten”, (plug) that give chizuk & show hashgacha protis) then Jewish books that make sense to read. But the “fiction” Novels I just don’t get.
