Description
FROM THE PUBLISHER OF THE GULAG ARCHIPELAGO – THE OFFICIALLY APPROVED TRANSLATION OF SOLZHENITSYN’S SEARING DEBUT NOVELThe Gulag, the Stalinist labour camps to which millions of Russians were condemned for political deviation, has become a household word in the West. This is due to the accounts of many witnesses, but most of all to the publication, in 1962, of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, the novel that first brought Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn to public attention. His story of one typical day in a labour camp as experienced by prisoner Ivan Denisovich Shukhov is sufficient to describe the entire world of the Soviet camps.Translated from the Russian by H. T. Willetts

Other text | For much of the century that he came to dominate, he was simply Russia's greatest writer |
