A great Oxfam charity shop find, Vasily Grossman's Stalingrad (the author of "Life and Fate" which was also set in and around the Stalingrad era, particularly the massive Soviet Counterattack outside teh city and heroic characters within the city).

Summertime reading 2025 sorted!
This is on my list...... I am about three quarters of the way through Life and Fate at the moment....it has taken me a while to get this far!
