Who are the “eastern equivalents” for the western literary giants such as Dostoyevsky, Hemingway and Steinbeck?

I am an Indian American who loves literature and frequently in my own research and conversations about the “greatest of all time” when it comes to literature, it has a definite western bias. I am not sure if this is inherent because of the general higher quality of western writers (if that is even a thing) or if because I am in America, I am being naturally exposed to more literature from the west and being told it’s “the best” as we were fundamentally birthed from European culture and ideas.

Either way, is there a list of authors or books from Asia, the Middle East and other parts of the world that are considered just as influential (not just in their local countries and communities, but made lasting generational impacts for future writers all over the world like Dostoyevsky for example). Please let me know because I want to be well rounded and not just European and American biases…and I hope you don’t say the art of war lol.
