Enemies of the State: Personal Stories from the Gulag, edited by Donald and Agnieszka Critchlow. Communist states are known for their prison camps, their slave labor and their cruelty. The Critchlows have collected 10 stories from people who survived purges, torture and other rigors of statism. These are excerpts from memoirs published between 1951 and 1986 from the Soviet Union, Hungary, Viet Nam, Cuba and China. Each one is a page-turner that teaches us lessons about life and courage even as it reminds us of the importance of politics, history and economics.
