It's the title of the novel by Vasily Grossman that he was still working on when he died in 1964. I just finished reading it and I can't recommend it strongly enough.
Technically unfinished, I suppose, it doesn't read as though it's lacking anything. It tells the story of Ivan Grigoryevich, who has just returned to civilian life after 30 years in various prisons and camps of the Gulag. Along the way we also learn something of the lives of others with whom Ivan Grigoryevich comes into contact. Grossman weaves these individual tales into the history of the USSR, conveying with great power and also subtlety the horror that descended on the country - the cruelties, the criminality as state policy, the widespread corruption, the politically engineered famine in Ukraine (described, this, in unforgettable pages), and a sort of universal madness - all of it symbolized in the figure of one man, Stalin.
Everything Flows not only depicts a few individual lives against this vast and terrible backdrop, it also presents a philosophy - of human freedom 'stand[ing] against everything', morally and in fact. The chapter on Lenin which Grossman writes into this larger picture deserves - all on its own - to be widely read, for its psychological acuity and its understanding of the complexities of human personality as displayed, now in the private, and now in the public, domain.
