Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

From Metapedia

Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn (December 11, 1918 – August 3, 2008) was a Russian novelist, dramatist and historian. Through his writings, he made the world aware of the Gulag, the Soviet labour camp system, and, for these efforts, Solzhenitsyn was both awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970 and exiled from the Soviet Union in 1974. He returned to Russia in 1994. In 1994, he was elected as a member of Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts in the Department of Language and Literature.

Mr Solzhenitsyn also wrote Two Hundred Years Together which is about the Jews who became part of the Russian Empire with the conquest of Poland. The Soviets were not amused by his reports on their Gulags. Two Hundred Years Together also annoyed people who do not like the truth.
