First Harper & Row paperback edition of Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn's The Gulag Archipelago, I-II. Whitney trans. In acceptable condition with small tears in the front and back covers. Creasing down spine. Corner and edge wear. Text block clean. I highly recommend this book to anyone concerned with the rise of authoritarianism in the twenty and twenty-first centuries and even to those who do not yet know what a problem it is. Like Ayn Rand, Solzhenitsyn is motivated to show the effects of the collective upon the individual. Like Rand he also believes in the power of public opinion. His book too is an inoculant against these threats in the sense that he makes us aware of their existence and nature.
