About This Item
London : Bodley Head, (1971). First edition in English. Six novellas and short stories, together with sixteen poems from the winner of 1970 Nobel Prize, "for the ethical force with which he has pursued the indispensable traditions of Russian literature". Translated by Michael Glenny. "His new collection, with its stoical, plain, inward beauty, movingly reminds us that Solzhenitsyn seems never to have written a line that was not somehow tinged with hope" (Kirkus Review). Post 8vo (21cm). (242),[ii]pp. Original blue boards, lettered in gilt; a very good copy, fresh, clean and sound in the Michael Harvey dust-jacket - the jacket lightly sunned, with a hint of tanning and three short nicks, but complete and clean.
