Prisoner of the OGPU, first published in 1935, is a firsthand, absorbing account of the author’s 4 years in the Soviet gulag (1928-32) at the hands of the Soviet secret police (known as the OGPU at the time, later renamed the NKVD, MGB, and KGB). At the time of his arrest, George Kitchin, a Finnish citizen, was working in Russia as a representative for an American firm. He was charged with violating an obscure regulation, held in prison, and then sent to a labor camp located in northern Russia where he describes the brutalities he endured and witnessed. The book also offers excellent insights into the running of the camps as Kitchin was able to work in the camp’s administration offices (in addition to sometimes being sent to work on the timber-cutting and road-building labor crews). Included are 5 pages of illustrations. Less
