Elinor Lipper's 1951 memoir recounts the eleven years she spent in Soviet forced-labor camps after being arrested as a foreigner in Moscow. She writes that she describes her own experience only where it was typical, aiming at the common fate of Soviet citizens rather than the foreign prisoners. The book is a first-hand testimony from the Gulag's early Stalin years, published when such accounts were still rare in English. It suits readers of Gulag history and memoir who want a witness account rather than an academic synthesis.
