  SOLZHENITSYN, Alexander. Odin den'Ivana Denisovicha. Moscow: Roman Gazeta, 1963. Small quarto, stapled wraps. Second published appearance of Solzhenitsyn's hugely controversial first book, originally published in Novy mir two months earlier. By this time, though the book had been read by huge numbers, its state sanction was being revoked and Solzhenitsyn's ability to publish in his homeland was in jeopardy. Though a number of minor pieces would appear in periodicals, this was the first and last major publication of his work during the Soviet regime. Near fine. The first book publication of the work would come later in the year in London.
