Based around the pivotal WWII battle of Stalingrad (1942-3), where the German advance into Russia was eventually halted by the Red Army, and around an extended family, the Shaposhnikovs, and their many friends and acquaintances, Life and Fate recounts the experience of characters caught up in an immense struggle between opposing armies and ideologies. Nazism and Communism are appallingly similar, 'two poles of one magnet', as a German camp commander tells a shocked old Bolshevik prisoner. At the height of the battle Russian soldiers and citizens alike are at last able to speak out as they choose, and without reprisal - an unexpected and short-lived moment of freedom. Grossman himself was on the front line as a war correspondent at Stalingrad - hence his gripping battle scenes, though these are more than matched by the drama of the individual conscience struggling against massive pressure to submit to the State. He knew all about this from experience too. His central character, Viktor Shtrum, eventually succumbs, but each delay and act of resistance is a moral victory. Though he writes unsparingly of war, terror and totalitarianism, Grossman also tells of the acts of 'senseless kindness' that redeem humanity, and his message remains one of hope. He dedicates his book, the labour of ten years, and which he did not live to see published, to his mother, who, like Viktor Shtrum's, was killed in the holocaust at Berdichev in Ukraine in September 1941.

Twenty-first-century Kandinsky: a reappraisal of the Russian abstractionist’s art, life and thought through the extraordinary collection of the iconic museum\n\nOne of the foremost artistic innovators of abstraction in the 20th century, Vasily Kandinsky sought to liberate painting from its ties to the natural world and promote the spiritual in art. This richly illustrated publication looks at Kandinsky anew, through a critical lens, reframing our understanding of this vital figure of European modernism, who was also a prolific aesthetic theorist and writer.\nA series of thematic essays considers his engagement with avant-garde artistic communities including the Bauhaus, his relationship to improvisation and music, his travels in Europe and Russia, and the influences behind his self-declared anarchist mode of abstraction, among other topics. Tracing Kandinsky’s life and work through his years in Moscow, several cities in Germany, and Paris, the texts offer striking new insights into an artist whose creative production and style were intimately tied to a sense of place—and displacement—and evolved amid the political and social upheavals catalyzed by the Russian Revolution and World Wars I and II.\nKandinsky’s history is closely linked to that of the Guggenheim Museum. Solomon R. Guggenheim began collecting the artist’s work in 1929; a year later, they met at the Bauhaus, in Dessau. This book features more than half of the museum’s deep holdings of works by Kandinsky, presenting the full arc of his artistic development and career. Included are paintings in oil and oil with sand, reverse-glass paintings, as well as woodcuts, watercolors and drawings on paper. An illustrated chronicle of Kandinsky’s life and career, including selected exhibitions and publications, rounds out the volume.

In the summer of 1941, as the Germans invade Russia, newspaper reporter Vasily Grossman is swept to the frontlines, witnessing some of the most savage atrocities in Russian history.\n\n As Grossman follows the Red Army from the defence of Moscow, to the carnage at Stalingrad, to the Nazi genocide in Treblinka, his writings paint a vividly raw and devastating account of Operation Barbarossa during World War Two. \nGrossman’s notebooks, war diaries, personal correspondence and newspaper articles are meticulously woven into a gripping narrative and provide a piercing look into the life of the author behind recent Sunday Times bestseller Stalingrad.\n\nA Writer at War stands as an unforgettable eyewitness account of the Eastern Front and places Grossman as the leading Soviet voice of ‘the ruthless truth of war’.\n\n‘A remarkable addition to the literature of 1941 – 1945...a wonderful portrait of the wartime experience of Russia... A worthy memorial to a remarkable man’ Sunday Telegraph

Si può costruire un'intera vita su una bugia? Yefim lo ha fatto. E lo rifarebbe mille volte, perché della sua vita non cambierebbe nulla. Ha una moglie che lo tiene ancora per mano. Dei figli orgogliosi delle loro radici. Dei nipoti che credono che il nonno sia un eroe, perché tornato dalla guerra. Eppure, Yefim si domanda cosa farebbero i suoi famigliari se sapessero del segreto che nasconde da anni. Un segreto celato in una valigia che ora, all'insaputa di tutti, Yefim sta bruciando perché non ne rimanga traccia. Nessuno deve conoscere la storia del giovane, pieno di sogni e speranze, costretto a indossare un'uniforme e combattere i nazisti. Nessuno deve sapere del filo spinato, della fame, del freddo. Soprattutto, nessuno deve sapere del giorno in cui ha dovuto compiere una scelta impossibile: fingere di non essere ebreo per sopravvivere. Quel giorno terribile in cui ha iniziato la sua esistenza controvento, rinnegando sé stesso. Una condizione da cui è scappato con un'altra bugia, pur di tornare a casa. Ma, adesso, è proprio in casa sua che questi segreti stanno per essere riportati alla luce. Yefim avverte nell'aria lo stesso odore di tempesta dei cieli solcati dagli aerei. Ma la storia non può essere cancellata dalle fiamme. Perché quei periodi bui devono essere raccontati, anche quando è difficile. Soltanto così i sommersi non saranno solo polvere portata dal vento. Un romanzo ispirato a una storia vera, che interroga il lettore su cosa voglia dire essere un «salvato», come spiegava Primo Levi. Un libro che racconta un aspetto poco noto della tragedia della Seconda guerra mondiale. In quel passato, ci sono le domande e le risposte che oggi, forse più che mai, non vanno dimenticate.

L'estate non arriva mai prima dell'inverno, un nuovo nato solamente in seguito a una gravidanza, la sera sempre dopo l'alba. Per ogni cosa c'è il momento giusto e a noi spetta soltanto di fluire, nel mezzo. E così, per qualche lirica l'attesa è stata di oltre 15 anni, dopo la pandemia, l'europeo, i Màneskin, eccola, la mia prima raccolta di versi. Molti i riferimenti musicali, tanto il ritmo e ancora due pittopoesie in collaborazione con Liroi e Aurora Pilati del collettivo SUBWORD di Ostia. E ancora, citazioni e aforismi, pensieri in libertà, siccome le parole costituiscono i mattoni dai quali è eretta la coscienza; insomma, prenditi del tempo che, in fin dei conti, è l'unica cosa che ci appartiene davvero. Non sprecarlo, rifletti ed espandi il tuo Universo! Come sopra, così sotto e così sia... in Armonia! E infine una preghiera che si usava ripetere in India all'inizio di ogni spettacolo teatrale: che ognuno possa essere libero dalla sofferenza, che ogni essere possa godere della felicità e delle sue cause, ora e sempre!

'One of the great novels of the 20th century' Observer\n\nIn April 1942, Hitler and Mussolini plan the huge offensive on the Eastern Front that will culminate in the greatest battle in human history.\n\nHundreds of miles away, Pyotr Vavilov receives his call-up papers and spends a final night with his wife and children in the hut that is his home. As war approaches, the Shaposhnikov family gathers for a meal: despite her age, Alexandra will soon become a refugee; Tolya will enlist in the reserves; Vera, a nurse, will fall in love with a wounded pilot; and Viktor Shtrum will receive a letter from his doomed mother which will haunt him forever.\n\nThe war will consume the lives of a huge cast of characters - lives which express Grossman's grand themes of the nation and the individual, nature's beauty and war's cruelty, love and separation.\n\nFor months, Soviet forces are driven back inexorably by the German advance eastward and eventually Stalingrad is all that remains between the invaders and victory. The city stands on a cliff top by the Volga River. The battle for Stalingrad - a maelstrom of violence and firepower - will reduce it to ruins. But it will also be the cradle of a new sense of hope.\n\nStalingrad is a magnificent novel not only of war but of all human life: its subjects are mothers and daughters, husbands and brothers, generals, nurses, political officers, steelworkers, tractor girls.
