Between Two Millstones, Book 1
Sketches of Exile, 1974-1978
Russian Nobel prize-winner Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (1918-2008) is widely acknowledged as one of the most important figures-and perhaps the most important writer-of the last century. To celebrate the centenary of his birth, the first English translation of his memoir of the West, Between Two Millstones, Book 1, is being published. Fast-paced, absorbing, and as compelling as the earlier installments of his memoir The Oak and the Calf (1975), Between Two Millstones begins on February 12, 1974, when Solzhenitsyn found himself forcibly expelled to Frankfurt, West Germany, as a result of the publication in the West of The Gulag Archipelago.

Über den Autor
Born December 11, 1918, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was a Soviet political prisoner from 1945-1953. He set himself firmly against the anti-human Soviet system, and all anti-human ideologies, from that time forward. The publication of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich in 1962 made him famous, and The Gulag Archipelago, published to worldwide acclaim in 1974, further unmasked communism and played a critical role in its eventual defeat. Solzhenitsyn won the Nobel Prize in 1970 and was exiled to the West in 1974. He ultimately published dozens of plays, poems, and novels, as well as works of history, nonfiction, and memoir, including Cancer Ward, In the First Circle, and The Oak and the Calf. Few authors have so decisively shaped minds, hearts, and world events as did Solzhenitsyn. The New York Times called Solzhenitsyn a literary giant after his death on August 3, 2008.
