Tracing the life of the laureate of the Nobel Prize Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn the author A.Ostrovskii reveals that the legendary writer tries to call everybody to live in truth but at the same time does not follow this rule himself. Taking into account the above mentioned peculiarity in behavior of Solzhenitsyn the history of his first arrest as well as his staying on the Gulag Archipelago and resistance to the Soviet System assume absolutely different character. Attracting the readers' attention to the issue the author sets us thinking not only about dissident movement in the Soviet Union of the 1960s-1980s and the struggle which took place between the ruling heads of the Soviet society but also about the roots of the tragedy, which Russian people experience today.
