A vast canvas of camps, prisons, transit centres and secret police, of informers and spies and interrogators but also of everyday heroism, The Gulag Archipelago is Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's grand masterwork.

Eton and Oxford prepared him well for a frantic career straddling the dog-eat-dog worlds of journalism and politics.
