The Gulag Survivor

The Gulag Survivor, now available in paperback, is the first book to examine at length and in-depth the post-camp experience of Stalins victims and their fate in post-Soviet Russia. It is an essential companion to the classic work of Aleksandr Solhenitsyn. Based on extensive interviews, memoirs, official records, and recently opened archives, The Gulag Survivor describes what survivors experienced when they returned to society, how officials helped or hindered them, and how issues surrounding their existence evolved from the 1950s to the present. It is an essential work in modern Russian history.
