About this product
Product Information
This reader, compiled by renowned Solzhenitsyn scholars Edward E. Ericson, Jr., and Daniel J. Mahoney in collaboration with the Solzhenitsyn family, provides in one volume a rich and representative selection of Solzhenitsyn's voluminous works. Reproduced in their entirety are early poems, early and late short stories, early and late "miniatures" (or prose poems), and many of Solzhenitsyn's famous--and not-so-famous--essays and speeches. The volume also includes excerpts from Solzhenitsyn's great novels, memoirs, books of political analysis and historical scholarship, and the literary and historical masterpieces "The Gulag Archipelago" and "The Red Wheel." More than one-quarter of the material has never before appeared in English (the author's sons prepared many of the new translations themselves). "The Solzhenitsyn Reader" reveals a writer of genius, an intransigent opponent of ideological tyranny and moral relativism, and a thinker and moral witness who is acutely sensitive to the great drama of good and evil that takes place within every human soul. It will be for many years the definitive Solzhenitsyn collection.

Reviews
"If a single figure summarizes the meaning of the twentieth century--in its magnificent highs no less than its miserable lows--it is Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Like all masters of culture both ancient and modern, his work transcends academic categories. As the editors make clear, Solzhenitsyn embraces the empirical and the ethical, the national culture of Russia and the global condition of Western civilization. The cloth of heroism is woven in respect for everyday life. Solzhenitsyn knows this, and this fine collection is a stark testament to the precious gift of his life and the enrichment he has given to ours." -- Irving Louis Horowitz , Hannah Arendt Distinguished University Professor of Sociology and Political Science, Rutgers University, "If a single figure summarizes the meaning of the twentieth century--in its magnificent highs no less than its miserable lows--it is Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

In gathering together and choosing wisely from texts of different genres (poems, short stories, novels, essays, speeches, etc.), Edward Ericson and Daniel Mahoney give readers the means to appreciate the extraordinary amplitude of Solzhenitsyn's art and thought. In addition, they provide masterly introductions that go to the heart of the matter and clear up many misunderstandings.
