Set during the brutal Battle of Stalingrad, this philosophical novel follows four fictional characters-Logos, Dr. Etouhnav, Psyche, and Hendrik-as they grapple with profound moral dilemmas in the face of violence, duty, and survival.
Through their discussions on reason, law, compassion, and loyalty, they confront the very essence of what it means to be human when the world is engulfed in conflict.
A thought-provoking narrative set against the backdrop of one of history's most devastating battles, this book challenges readers to reflect on the cost of war, not just in lives, but in the loss of self.
