Kontinent: The Alternative Voice of Russia & Eastern Europe (1974) was a dissident literary journal that Solzhenitsyn helped establish after his expulsion from the Soviet Union. The journal published fiction, poetry, and political writing by exiled and underground writers from across the Eastern Bloc.
Writers: Their Lives and Works (2018) is a reference anthology profiling major authors throughout history, with Solzhenitsyn among the writers featured. It provides biographical context and analysis of each author’s contributions to literature.
