I understand where you coming from, but both Russia classics Soviet and modern authors have decent comedy pieces.

Not to mention works that are just not about suffering but life.

Yes, but the people that have read Moscow 2042 count in the numbers of fingers on the hand of carefree bandsaw user compared to the people that have read Crime and Punishment. Which when I read it I understood that I was punished, but had not idea what my crime was.

The only widely known fun book outside of Russia is Master and Margarita.
