Solzhenitsyn. A Soul in Exile

Viac o knihe

"Based on exclusive, personal interviews with Solzhenitsyn himself, Joseph Pearce's major new book provides a profound insight into a towering literary and political figure." "From his pro-Communist youth to his imprisonment in the Gulags, his exile in America to his return to Russia, this is the story of a man who has struggled with the most weighty questions of humanity. When a person has suffered the most terrible physical and emotional torture, what becomes of his spirit? Can politics and economics truly provide the answers a modern society needs? If peace and justice are never fully attained, what hope is there for the future?" "This new biography contains previously unpublished prose poems, written by Solzhenitsyn since his return to Russia. Many of the photographs are also published here for the first time."--Jacket
