About This Item
University of Pittsburgh Press, 1993 8vo (23.5 cm), X, 339 pp. Laminated wrappers (canceled stamp of an institutional library on the title). From the blurb: "The Thaw Generation offers an insider's look at the Soviet dissident movement -- the intellectuals who, during the Khrushchev and Brezhnev eras, dared to challenge an oppressive system and demand the rights guaranteed by the Soviet constitution. Fired from their jobs, hunted by the KGB, “tried,” and imprisoned, Alexeyeva and other activists including Andrei Sakharov, Yuri Orlov, Yuli Daniel, and Andrei Sinyavsky, through their dedication and their personal and professional sacrifices, focused international attention on the issue of human rights in the USSR."
