Abstract to the book "For a Just Cause" Grossman V. S.: "For a Just Cause" (1943-1952, publ. 1952) is the first part of the "Stalingrad" dilogy by Vasily Grossman, better known to the reader by her second novel, "Life and Fate" (1950-1959, publ. 1980), which brought the author world fame. Having grown out of the real front—line experience of Grossman, a war correspondent for the newspaper Krasnaya Zvezda, who personally participated in the battles on the front line of the defense of Stalingrad, this book, upon publication, was subjected to devastating criticism in party circles, which turned into a real persecution of the writer and predetermined the difficult publishing fate of the second part of the dilogy. Today, this novel, which captures the pain and losses of the first years of the war, stands on a par with the best examples of Russian prose, filled with "trench truth" about the great battle, such as "Days and Nights" and "The Living and the Dead" by K. Simonov, "In the Trenches of Stalingrad" by V. Nekrasov, "Hot Snow" by Yu. Bondarev. Grossman created a book based on the epic tradition of Leo Tolstoy: behind the life stories of dozens of people — from a simple soldier and a worker to an academician and a commander — there is a powerful breath of great History that forever changed millions of human destinies.
