Foreshadowing his later detailed accounts of the Soviet prison-camp system, Solzhenitsyn's classic portrayal of life in the gulag is all the more powerful for being slighter and more personal than those later monumental volumes. Continuing the tradition of the great nineteenth-century Russian novelists, especially Dostoevsky and Tolstoy, Solzhenitsyn is fully worthy of them in narrative power and moral authority. His greatest work.

Absolutely fantastic. I swallowed it whole in one sitting. The stile mixes between first person and third person narrative, but it does so in an intelligent way. It's a very interesting read, and considering the fact it's a relatively short book, I reccomend any person with even a passing interest in Russian litterature, or the Gulags, read this. It won't take long, but it is well worth the money.

Excellent
Great piece of literature that illustrates the true nature of Russian prison camps. Gives enormous insight into the nature of man, as an individual and in a society.

One day in the life of a Soviet
When my history teacher in my sophomore year in high school had us read this book there was concern that he was teaching us communism. That is true. He was teaching us just how bad it was in Soviet Russia and later as an adult I read 3 books by Dostoyevski and Tolstoy which greatly reflected how I better understood the Russian mind. Today, I feel we can still have good relations with the Russians. And that makes the suffering of those in the Soviet archipelago much more meaningful. I also read one of Solzhenitzen's books in graduate school and I feel like I am much better informed about our neighbors in the East. I am not a political science major. My major was in chemistry and Sakharov's bio was very good too.
