  3. Just finished reading, one of the top 3 novels ever read in my life:

    "Life and destiny" - Жизнь и судьба

    by Vassily #Grossman, completed in 1960. The author died thinking his manuscript was lost forever, because KGB confiscated all copies (but one!) as its was deemed to be anti-sovietic. It appeared in europe only 20 years later .

    In its 800 pages, this is a black hole containing humanity, life, epics, history, poetry, pure beauty, pure horror, it's incredible.

  5. L’ #écrivain #israélien David #Grossman qualifie désormais la situation à #Gaza de “ #génocide” , un terme qu’il avait jusqu’à présent refusé d’utiliser : sa réflexion avait évolué en lisant les journaux et en écoutant les #témoignages de ceux qui revenaient de #Gaza.

    “J’étudie les #génocides ; je sais en reconnaître un quand j’en vois un.”

  7. "Davanti a tanta sofferenza il fatto che questa crisi sia stata iniziata da #Hamas il 7 ottobre è irrilevante". Qualcuno doveva dirlo finalmente in #Israele. Lo ha fatto il mio amico David #Grossman.

  11. Elite #Coffee

    "Inside a multimillion-dollar lab at the #MIT#Grossman (professor of Materials Science and Engineering) and his students use an electron microscope and an infrared spectrometer to research whether microwaving your coffee physically makes it worse."

    Coffee is far from Grossman’s specialty 😂, but he teaches students to roast and brew coffee beans, then use the Department lab to uncover the physics and chemistry hidden within each cup.

  12. Prosecuters allege wealthy convicted murderer "has been instigating “illegal conduct” via jailhouse telephone calls with her family and say her legal team has attempted to tamper with the jurors who convicted her. "

    "In a motion filed Thursday, the prosecutors alleged that a juror had come forward to complain that despite jurors being told that their identities were protected, a private investigator working for Grossman had attempted to question him outside his home about how the jury reached its verdict.

  14. "I first glimpsed Armenia from the train, early in the morning greenish-gray rock—not mountains or crags but scree, flat deposits of stone, fields of stone. A mountain had died, its skeleton had been scattered over the ground. Time had aged the mountain; time ha killed the mountain—and here lay the mountain's bones."
