For me flawed in places, but still one of the greatest novels of the 20th Century 😊

After 5 yrs in the freelance market, I‘ve come onboard a media company as a Production Coordinator! It‘s exciting, face-paced and intense but my reading has slacked off in the past 2 weeks. I finally figured out that I need to schedule reading time and parse books out to get my fix. With that in mind, I‘m starting this now but don‘t expect to finish it until mid-January 2019!
And I know *nothing* about it now so I‘ll keep you posted...
Reading outside in the sun ☀️
October 2017 (today at least) feels more like August, than August did... 😊
I have been reading this one for a while now. Lots of Russian politics wich make it a bit slow, but interesting (and also a Russian novel I think).

pickThe horrors of the network of Soviet prison camps, laid bare in the Gulag Archipelago, provide a terrifying insight into the dreadful autocratic communism
during the Soviet era. Solzhenitsyn's masterwork is a must read for all. There were times I had to put down the book after reading some particularly grim scenes. I cannot stress how impactful this work is #russianlit #solzhenitsyn #gulag #booksandsocks
Book haul part 1! 😁
On this day in 1974, Alexander Solzhenitsyn was deported from the Soviet Union to West Germany after the release of the Gulag Archipelago. No better time to start reading one of the most impactful books of the 20th Century #russianlit #russianliterature #solzhenitsyn
