It is possible to categorize a number of the works of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn as epic in character. You want mythological symbolism? Just go to "The First Circle." Solzhenitsyn is highly praised and roundly condemned today.The literary lights discovered he was a moralist and, good heavens, a Christian.
Malcom Muggeridge in his forward to Edward E. Ericson's book "Solzhenitsyn: The Moral Vision," said: " I cannot think of any more worthwhile study for any student on campus today than to go carefully through all the writings and discourses of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn available in English translation -- which is practically the whole corpus."
