**The Gulag Archipelago ABRIDGED**
**Chapter 08 - The Law as a Child: https://files.catbox.moe/qhyhws.mp3**
I give my apologies to the no doubt often mispronounced Russian names and places. Additional apologies for sometimes mispronounced English words…
This Chapter:
*It's so short (got the knife for abridgement) I'm just putting it in a reply post in text if you want to read it instead.*
Why you should listen:
- You probably went through public school like me, so this urgently important part of history was not taught to you.
- This book is 1984 before 1984 was written (it’s also nonfiction).
- The powers perpetrating mass incarceration and murder throughout this book are still in power today.
Why Abridged?
- If you don't have an intimate relationship with Russian history, you will be lost most of the time.
- The full audio version is about an 80 hour adventure of dry listening. I suspect this will be fewer than 40 when I am finished.
- This was written for a western audience.
