Based on the author's own experience in the gulags, where he spent nearly a decade as punishment for making derogatory remarks against Stalin, the novel is an unforgettable portrait of the entire world of Stalin's forced work camps. An instant classic upon publication in 1962, it confirmed Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's international stature as "a literary genius whose talent matches that of Dostoevsky, Turgenev, Tolstoy" (Harrison Salisbury) UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/description/random0414/96121678.html UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0703/96121678-b.html UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0703/96121678-s.html ER -
