Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Book club edition. Light jacket edge wear, 1/2 inch closed tear to rear jacket corner. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1972 Hard Cover. 622 pp. Translated by Michael Glenny. Original red cloth hardcover binding with gold lettering, maps on endpapers, portrait of author by Karl W. Stuecklen on dust jacket rear. "In his monumental narrative of the outbreak of the First World War and the ill-fated Russian offensive into East Prussia, Solzhenitsyn has written what Nina Krushcheva, in The Nation, calls "a dramatically new interpretation of Russian history." The assassination of tsarist prime minister Pyotr Stolypin, a crucial event in the years leading up to the Revolution of 1917, is reconstructed from the alienating viewpoints of historical witnesses. The sole voice of reason among the advisers to Tsar Nikolai II, Stolypin died at the hands of the anarchist Mordko Bogrov, and with him perished Russia's last hope for reform." "August 1914 transports us to the battlefield at Tannenberg in the early months of World War I. Each command of the generals brings the hapless Russian army closer to humiliating defeat by the Germans, a critical loss that hastens the Bolshevik Revolution. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn depicts a turning point in Russian history with brilliant clarity. He offers unforgettable portraits of Nicholas II and Lenin, and shows us the individual characters--army colonels and peasant soldiers, politicians and bourgeois wives--whose quotidian actions are gathered into the inexorable movement of history." "Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn (born December 11, 1918) is a Russian novelist, dramatist and historian. Through his writings, he made the world aware of the Gulag, and, for these efforts, Solzhenitsyn was both awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970 and exiled from the Soviet Union in 1974. He returned to Russia in 1994. In 1994, he was elected as a member of Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts in the Department of Language and Literature.…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Cuando Alexandr Solzhenitsyn acabó de escribir Archipiélago Gulag, confesaba en el epílogo: «La de veces que empecé este libro para abandonarlo después. No podía acabar de comprender si era necesario o no que escribiera yo solo un libro semejante. Y además, ¿cuánto tiempo lo soportaría? Pero cuando, sumándose a lo que yo ya había recopilado, convergieron sobre mí otras muchas cartas de presos procedentes de todos los rincones del país, comprendí que, dado que todo esto se me había dado a mí, debía hacerlo». Y es que Solzhenitsyn fue redactando entre 1958 y 1967, en la más absoluta clandestinidad, los numerosos fragmentos que darían lugar a Archipiélago Gulag. Lo hizo sin archivos, partiendo de los recuerdos de sus propias vivencias y de los testimonios de sus compañeros de prisión, y sufriendo en el momento álgido de su trabajo, en 1965, el saqueo de sus papeles junto con el secuestro de la novela El primer círculo. Este tercer y último volumen está articulado en siete partes: «La industria penitenciaria», «Perpetuum mobile», «Campos de trabajo y exterminio», «El alma y el alambre de espino», «El presidio», «El confinamiento» y «Stalin ya no está». En ellas Solzhenitsyn aborda los últimos años del dominio de Stalin y de sus sucesores, y explica cómo ?un cuarto de siglo después de que la Revolución lo aboliera? se restableció el presidio ruso, y con él los «campos especiales» reservados para los presos políticos. Solzhenitsyn describe las condiciones de vida en los campos soviéticos de la posguerra, las evasiones, las huelgas, las revueltas heroicas. . . El confinamiento en ellos, la otra forma de exilio, afectó a unos quince millones de campesinos y se convirtió en un método generalizado de marginación de los indeseables. «Los dirigentes pasan», decían, «el Archipiélago perdura». Culminamos con este tercer volumen la publicación de esta obra monumental, traducida a partir de la edición que, en 1980, Solzhenitsyn fijó como la definitiva, revisada y aumentada. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
