Solzhenitsyn dead at 89
Alexander Solzhenitsyn, the heroic Soviet dissenter whose The Gulag Archipelago cast worldwide attention on the Stalin-era concentration camps in Siberia, is dead of heart failure at 89.
Solzhenitsyn was also spoke out strongly about the spiritual bankruptcy of the modern West. American cultural leaders, responding to the Russian writer, were often heard to say, "Huh?"
His was a lonely voice from the wilderness that was heard throughout the world, and helped to change the course of history.
