A short summary of The Gulag Archipelago:
The insider's guide to the Soviet secret prisons.
My favorite Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn quote from the book:
"Power is a poison well-known for thousands of years."
Questions to ponder while reading the book:
Do you believe in your government?
Do you have pride in yourself?
My review of The Gulag Archipelago Volume 1:
A damn scary book about the costs of communism.
The conditions broke my heart.
Very hard to get through but, I think, a necessary read.
I'm tapping out before reading volumes 2 & 3. Volume 1 was enough for me.
