About The Gulag Archipelago

The Gulag Archipelago is a three-volume, non-fiction work by Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn that was first published in 1973. It covers the Soviet Union's forced labor camp system. The extensive work combines historical research, Solzhenitsyn's own experiences as a Gulag prisoner, and the testimonies of other inmates to describe the brutalities of the Gulag.
