DALL'AUTORE PREMIO NOBEL PER L'ARCIPELAGO GULAG "Solženicyn è una delle figure più importanti dell'epoca, come scrittore, come moralista, come eroe" Edward CrankshawDopo anni di esilio forzato nelle steppe del Kazakistan, una diagnosi di cancro porta Oleg Kostoglotov al reparto 13. Trattato brutalmente in condizioni squallide e confrontato con il personale del reparto e altri pazienti provenienti da tutta l'Unione Sovietica, Kostoglotov si ritrova nuovamente catapultato nei meccanismi estenuanti di uno stato ancora ossessionato dallo stalinismo. Uno dei grandi capolavori allegorici della letteratura mondiale, Reparto cancro è sia uno studio profondamente compassionevole di persone che affrontano una malattia terminale sia una brillante dissezione dello stato di polizia sovietico "canceroso". Ritirato dalla pubblicazione in Russia nel 1964, divenne, insieme a Una giornata di Ivan Denisovic, un'opera che risvegliò la coscienza del mondo.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was born in 1918 and grew up in Rostov-on-Don. He graduated in Physics and Mathematics from Rostov University and studied Literature by correspondence course at Moscow University. In World War II he fought as an artillery officer, attaining the rank of captain. In 1945, however, after making derogatory remarks about Stalin in a letter, he was arrested and summarily sentenced to eight years in forced labour camps, followed by internal exile. In 1957 he formally rehabilitated, and settled down to teaching and writing, in Ryazan and Moscow. The publication of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich in Novy Mir in 1962 was followed by publication, in the West, of his novels Cancer Ward and The First Circle. In 1970 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature, and in 1974 his citizenship was revoked and he was expelled from the Soviet Union. He settled in Vermont and worked on his great historical cycle The Red Wheel. In 1990, with the fall of Soviet Communism, his citizenship was restored and four years later he returned to settle in Russia. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn died in August 2008.
