Vladimir Sergeevich Bushin - a brilliant publicist, writer, poet and literary critic - knew Alexander Solzhenitsyn since the 1960s. In his book, he answers the question that still occupies all researchers of Alexander Solzhenitsyn's work - was Solzhenitsyn an anti-Semite ? Bushin talks about how Jews from Soviet magazines and publishing houses provided powerful support to Alexander Solzhenitsyn at the beginning of his career. They supported him later; in order not to be unfounded, Vladimir Bushin names many of the names of Jews who took part in the “promotion” of Solzhenitsyn.
