Description

From back of book: In "The Destructive-Labor: Camps," the first part of the volume; we experienced the terrible plight of working prisoners, the cru¬elty and caprice of authorities, and tragic fate of the women prisoners and the luckless children born to them. This chronicle of inhumanity is made bearagle by the vitality and emotional range of Solhenitsyn's writing that make his work on the "Archipelago" of Soviet repression one of extraordinary literary events of our age. "The Soul and Barbed Wire," the second part of this volume, is a magnificent statement on the possibilities of purification and redemption through suffering. It was at the threshold of the camps that the first volume of GULAG TWO takes us inside them.
