Longwinded, simple great vs over-the-top, emotional-precion great...
I've never finished any of their books, although I was enjoying The Gambler quite a bit.
There are two Russian books I've both finished and remembered: The Cancer Ward, and One Day in the life of Ivan Somethinovich, so I'll vote for Solzenitsyn.
I have reached the point in my life now where I'm pretty much only reading British authors with a handful of Australians thrown in. But to be honest, that's pretty much always been the case for me.
