He would be the only one to survive and return to his family after enduring two decades in the infamous Kolyma labor camps. Translated into English and published here for the first time, Bolotov's memoir narrates with growing intensity his arrest, imprisonment and interrogation, his "confession" and trial, his exile to hard labor in Arctic Siberia, and his rehabilitation in1956 following the official end of Stalin's personality cult."-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 257-262) and index Notes Print version record Subject Bolotov, Leonid Petrovich, 1906-1987.
