Alexander Solzhenitsyn is an outstanding Russian writer of the 20th century, a classic of Russian literature, and a Nobel Prize laureate ('For the moral strength with which he continued the traditions of great Russian literature,' 1970).
This edition presents 'The Gulag Archipelago' - a world-famous documentary and fiction epic about the repressions during the Soviet era.
'... The book is about blood, sweat, tears, suffering, hopelessness, and you close it with a feeling of strength and light. It shows that a person can remain human under any circumstances. It gives the feeling that our people have not ended, we have passed the low point, we have gone through catharsis. It will be difficult to improve life, but it is possible' (N.D. Solzhenitsyn).
