Great writing here Sean about a great man! A true hero to be sure. I’ve read his speeches from “Warning to the West” which are great but haven’t read gulag yet. I’ve got gulag on the shelf. Time to pick it up.
Read large portions of the three Gulag volumes long ago for a Russian literature class in undergrad. Long, difficult reading (compared to Ivan Denisovich, Cancer Ward, First Circle) - but so very good.
Probably one of the strongest quotes of the 20th century.
“the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being"
He's just got such a way of getting to the heart of the issue lol
Amazing work as always 👏 you always have impeccable timing too
Thank you Charlotte! I appreciate your kind words as always too :)
Also read “In the First Circle”. A remarkable man.
In my bucket list! I’ve heard wonderful things about that and cancer ward!
Magnificent. That's where we're at today. The people have chosen the lie and will pay the price. Colluding with a big lie can only lead to trouble.
Very well said Aisling!
