Item description from seller

The book recounts the nine years spent by Hungarian Raphael Rupert in the prison camps of Soviet Russia - the Gulag. At the time of his arrest in 1947, Rupert was working from the British Embassy in Budapest. His trial, based on a presumed confession of acting as a spy, ended in his sentence to Camp 10 for 25 years of `forced labor.` A Hidden World describes the daily life and endless brutalities endured in the camps.the numbing winter cold, the mindless drudgery in the factories, the harsh treatment by guards and prison gangs, the lack of food and medical care. Finally, after nine years, Rupert was released and able to emigrate to Great Britain, eventually settling in Ireland. 223 S., OPappband "Mit eh. Widmung des Verfassers auf dem Titelbl., dat. u. sign. 29.12.65, Wien "To my dear friends, Elena and Endre Pronay as a token of gratitude for their kindness and loyal understanding to me"".
