About this book

Soviet prisons, labor camps and exile form the subject of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s account of confinement under Stalin. Combining his recollections with testimony from other survivors, he describes the institutions and people caught within that system. The work examines the pressures placed on prisoners and the question of personal responsibility under a state sustained by coercion and official falsehood.

The Gulag Archipelago carries the subtitle An Experiment in Literary Investigation, which is close to what it is: a history of the Soviet camp system built from the author's own eight years inside it and the testimony of 227 other former prisoners.
