Eugenia Ginzburg’s critically acclaimed memoir of the harrowing eighteen years she spent in prisons and labor camps under Stalin’s rule

 

By the past due 1930s, Eugenia Semyonovna Ginzburg had been a loyal and really active member of the Communist Birthday celebration for a few years. Yet like millions of others who suffered all over Stalin’s reign of terror, she used to be arrested—on trumped-up charges of being a Trotskyist terrorist and counter-revolutionary—and sentenced to prison. With an ideal eye for detail, profound strength, and an indefatigable spirit, Ginzburg recounts the years, days, and minutes she endured in prisons and labor camps, including two years of solitary confinement. A classic account of survival, Journey into the Whirlwind is thought of as some of the essential documents of Stalin’s regime.
