Another great one gone

Being a touch preoccupied with his own problems, Rico says he sometimes misses events, or at least the less-than-earth-shaking ones, like the death of Alexander Solzhenitsyn (more properly Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn), who died back in 2008. If nothing else (and he wrote many great books; see the list below), his writings on the Gulag will remain as his memorial.
