Varlam Shalamov (1907-1982) was an outstanding Russian prose writer and poet who spent seventeen years in Stalin's camps. "Remember, most importantly, the camp is a negative school from the first to the last day for anyone," Shalamov wrote. - A person - neither a superior nor a prisoner - does not need to see it. But if you have seen it - it is necessary to tell the truth, no matter how terrible it is. For my part, I decided long ago that I will devote the rest of my life to this truth. "Kolyma stories" - the main work of V. Shalamov, narrating about the life of prisoners of correctional labor camps in 1930-1950. The stories were written in 1954-1973 and in this edition are presented in full - in six cycles: "Kolyma Stories", "Left Bank", "Shovel Artist", "Sketches of the underworld", "Resurrection of the larch", "Glove, or KR-2". The first publications of Shalamov's stories took place in 1966-1976 in the American Russian-language "Novy Zhurnal"; in the writer's homeland the works saw the light of day only after the author's death in the late 1980s.
