Life and Fate Read Along: Part 2, Chapter 31

Covering thoughts shared by some of our listeners on our Discord and on social media about Part 2, Chapter 31 of Vasily Grossman's Life and Fate. You can read our post about the chapter here.If you haven't already signed up to get daily emails reflecting on each chapter of Life and Fate, you can do so on our website.Be sure to follow us on Instagram and join our Discord to participate in the discussion.(Quick note: after recording, I looked up some of the novels -- retroactively included under the broad umbrella of critical theory -- and many of them were either concurrent or even predate Life and Fate.)Thanks to Dominique, Regan, and Disco_Barbelo (who contributed some great thoughts after we recorded!) for their thoughts in this episode.
