5.0 out of 5 stars
Truth amid a sea of relativism.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A World Split Apart: Commencement Address Delivered at Harvard University, June 8, 1978 (Hardcover)
This is an outstanding criticism of American materialism and its roots in secular humanism. The fact that it was delivered at Harvard makes one appreciate Sozhenitsyn's courage to preach this message to those who especially need to hear it. This book will always be relevant to American culture as long as it continues to follow the path of belief in undisciplined liberty.

Aleksandr Isaevich Further Cements His Reputation.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A World Split Apart: Commencement Address Delivered at Harvard University, June 8, 1978 (Hardcover)
Solzhenitsyn at his crazy best. An all-out attack on both the Soviet Union and the American youth of the 1970's, this more or less accurately reflects the real Solzhenitsyn: A self-centered angry man who attempts to take the sins of the world upon himself. Is this simply hubris, or the act of a boddhisattva in the making? You decide.
