I came across an interesting op-ed piece by a noted Russian columnist on the confession by Pulitzer Prize Winning Gunter Grass’ statement that he had served in the Waffen SS in 1945.
Even in this day and age, this astounding confession is disturbing especially in light of his anti-facist novel ‘The Tin Drum’. What’s just as bothersome is it is seemingly tied (as the columnist opined) to the notion that Grass made this confession at the same time his publisher is hoping for big sales with his book ‘Peeling the Onion’.
