"A memoir from an innocent victim of Stalin's purges (1937-39). It's entertaining, for the most part. But after a while all these memories begin to blur together, don't they?
If nothing else, you'll have no trouble reading it in a mere weekend, its heft notwithstanding..."
"A fabulous, simple first hand account of the reality of communism. Written by a communist who gets swept up into the gulag even while enthusiastically supporting the regime, you can't escape the reality of what this system does to anyone in it's way."
"Amazing book, recounting the horrors of "an honest Communist" who suffered under Stalin's repression. Ginzburg describes the 18 years she spent in prison and in work camps, from Kazan to Yaroslavl to Kolyma. A must read for those who want to understand the Stalinist period and the legacy of suffering that lingers in Siberia."
