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.
