A Kid's Review
This review is from: Graphite (Hardcover)
I love this book. It is an account of experiences in Russian concentration camps told as a series of short stories written like mental journal entries. This first hand account of a historical context rarely-discussed is told in poignant and distilled mini-stories. The style is sparse and the content extraordinary.

This review is from: Graphite (Hardcover)
This collection of short stories is an ideal way to examine what life was like in Stalin's concentration camps. Shalamav writes in a dispassionate manner that heightens the reader's sense of loss and helplessness. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in Soviet history.
