  The first comprehensive study of how Soviet and post-Soviet novelists--most of them war veterans--depicted the shattering experiences of World War II. Uncovers themes common to war literature in general but also distinctive to the Soviet experience. Reveals why Russia's memories of World War II are forever tied to the suffering of its people.
