Praise for Hope Against Hope

Nothing one can say will either communicate or affect the genius of this book. To pass judgment on it is almost insolence - even judgment that is merely celebration and. homage

George Steiner, The New Yorker

The witnesses to living on an edge under the tyrant are now many; none, not even Solzhenitsyn, has written better.

Doris Lessing

Hope against Hope puts [Mandelstam] at the centre of the liberal resistance under the Soviet Union. A masterpiece of prose as well as a model of bilgraphical narrative and social analysis.
