This is stunning. Vasily Grossman in Life and Fate 1960, writing on "this machine whose dimensions and weight will continually increase as it attempts to reproduce the peculiarities of mind and soul of an average, inconspicuous human being."

And pointedly noting in the same breath: "Fascism annihilated tens of millions of people."
