Title: Soviet Censored
Product review: unfortunately Soviet approved, but lacks the courage to ask why he was there, not as much detail as Gulag Archipelago (best book on subject) but written of experiences earlier in the 1930's. Author seems to have taken the soft route in jobs (camp medical orderly etc) rather than the default way.According to this book the male criminal element (opposed to s.58) are all homosexuals, and all females in camps are prostitutes, but married to there gay criminal companions. Make of this what you will.Emphasises camp life only, no comments as to the validity of the state in its actions, or actions of Lenin, or Stalin. Or in fulling 5 year plans. A biassed account
