Life and Fate 2024

Overview

Starting 2024, Matt and Cameron from The Slavic Literature Pod will be hosting a chapter a day read along of Vasily Grossman's Life and Fate.

Starting January 1, 2024 we will be sending a quick email everyday with thoughts, quotes, and ideas from Grossman's most critically acclaimed novel of the 20th century. If you want to join the discussion, be sure to follow us on Instagram or join our Discord community. At the end of each day, we will upload a short (under 5 minute) recap of everything discussed that day.
