EDITORIAL REVIEW: Edited and translated from the Russian by Antony Beevor and Luba Vinogradova Knopf Canada is proud to present a masterpiece of the Second World War, never before published in English, from one of the great Russian writers of the 20th century ÔÇô a vivid eyewitness account of the Eastern Front and ÔÇ£the ruthless truth of war.ÔÇØWhen the Germans invaded Russia in 1941, Vasily Grossman became a special correspondent for the Red Star, the Red ArmyÔÇÖs newspaper. **A Writer at War** ÔÇô based on the notebooks in which Grossman gathered raw material for his articles ÔÇô depicts the crushing conditions on the Eastern Front, and the lives and deaths of soldiers and civilians alike. It also includes some of the earliest reportage on the Holocaust. In the three years he spent on assignment, Grossman witnessed some of the most savage fighting of the war: the appalling defeats of the Red Army, the brutal street fighting in Stalingrad, the Battle of Kursk (the largest tank engagement in history), the defense of Moscow, the battles in Ukraine and much more.Historian Antony Beevor has taken GrossmanÔÇÖs raw notebooks, and fashioned them into a narrative providing one of the most even-handed descriptions ÔÇô at once unflinching and sensitive ÔÇô we have ever had of what he called ÔÇ£the ruthless truth of war.ÔÇØ*From the Hardcover edition.*
