Everything Flows

Vasily Grossman · 1905–1964 · Ukraine / Russia

Originally Vsyo Techyot (Russian)

Why it matters

A man released after thirty years in the camps returns to a society of those who denounced and survived. Grossman's unfinished last novel reckons with informing, complicity, and a searing indictment of the man-made famine in Ukraine.

At a glance

Essayistic historical digressions on the famine interrupt the fragmentary, unfinished narrative.
