I wanted to find users that loved the same kinds of classical novels. The core of my list was each famous work of famous classical writers like Dostoievsky, Tolstoi, Huxley and Borges. I added a few excellent authors, still famous but to a lesser degree, like Italo Calvino or Marguerite Yourcenar. I know there are many readers of the whole list I wrote, I could name a few among my friends and family.

So I think the problem was not in the existence of similar readers, but in the way to reach them. Few people that read classical books log in Goodreads (I don't) and even fewer input what they've read over the past decades.
