Final testament banned in the Soviet Union and written after the Soviet authorities suppressed his masterpiece, Life and Fate.
Grossman's viewpoint on Russian history and the role of the revolution in stifling freedom is intertwined with the topics discussed in "Vse techet", which include Soviet labor camps, collectivization and famine in Ukraine, Soviet postwar antisemitism, and the planned deportation of Jews. Grossman saw Russian history as a manifestation of the "growth of slavery" and attributed the harshness of the Soviet era to Lenin's establishment of a revolutionary dictatorship.
