Writing in the tradition of Solzhenitsyn and other great Russian authors, Alexander Yakovlev tells two stories at once in "Digging Out": how the Soviet Union became a terror state, and how a small band of reformers associated with Gorbachev and Yeltsin brought an end to the long socialist experiment. This monumental work succeeds brilliantly as history and also as a personal testament.
