Solzhenitsyn dies at 89

http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/08/...zhenitsynB.php -- Eight page article.

Quote:
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, whose stubborn, lonely and combative literary struggles gained the force of prophecy as he revealed the heavy afflictions of Soviet Communism in some of the most powerful literary works of the 20th century, died late on Sunday at the age of 89 in Moscow.
I believe that this will be the least viewed thread ever posted on GG&Jim unless a bunch of people mistakenly think that Solzhenitsyn was a hockey player.
