I came across this book in 2013, I was 36 years old then. It was interesting to read about Russian scientists in sharashkas. And before that I watched a film based on this work, the film is very good.
It'll definitely take me awhile - it's a long book, and if there's one main plot, that plot hasn't revealed itself yet. But it gives very interesting insights on life in those horrible time - and has inspired me to start a biography of Stalin.
Hello! I've been reading "In the First Circle" fairly slowly - it's an interesting book, though very complex structurally.
