The English translation of Vasily Grossman’s Stalingrad is a sensational read.
Novikov, an important character in the novel and a senior officer, commented after the German breakthrough at Brest that the “greatest misfortune of the first few hours had been the breakdown in communications. With proper communications everything would have been different.”
Not for a moment to compare senior Soviet battle commanders with church ‘leaders’, but how different our church could be if there were a modicum of real or serious communication.
Might the new Master General of the Dominican Order make it a goal or project of his that people begin to communicate openly and honestly.
