About This Novel
The winning work of the 2020 European History Book Award, the 2019 French Chateaubriand Prize, and the 2019 French Guéclin Historical Book Award; from the grand strategy to the multi-level presentation of the suffering of small people, it tells the ins and outs of the Soviet-German War in World War II and reveals the historical causes of the post-war European situation. Operation Barbarossa, which began on June 22, 1941, kicked off the bloody war in human history. The two most powerful armies in the world at the time started a direct confrontation. The German army once posed a huge threat with its "blitzkrieg" tactics. The Soviet Red Army shouldered the responsibility and pressure of defending the country and fought against the enemy's fierce artillery fire with their flesh and blood. In this book, the two authors use the process of the war as a clue and consult new documents and archives to describe the magnificent history of World War II in detail and vividly restore the people and events in the war. The author does not limit himself to the war itself, but instead casts his sights on the longer past, conducting a meticulous excavation of the cultural traditions, political demands, economic conditions and even the psychology of the leadership of the warring parties. The book contains both grand strategic analysis, detailed tactical deductions, and detailed presentations of individual sufferings, describing this thrilling "absolute war" in an all-round way.
