Reflects on the writings and testimonies that shed light on the veiled aspects of totalitarianism, dehumanisation, and atrocity. Identifying key themes that recur in the narratives - arrest, the stages of trial, imprisonment, escape, and more - the author discusses the historical, political, and social contexts of accounts of the Gulag experience.
