Roberts recommended The Gulag Archipelago to undergraduates for years over a decade as a tribute to Solzhenitsyn's moral courage, feeling that he deserved the readership, and also recommended Anne Applebaum's shorter history The Gulag as well as the one-volume version of The Gulag Archipelago that Solzhenitsyn approved.

“when ice to teach undergrads on the last class I would recommend a series of books I didn't think they might think of reading that I would recommend encourage them to read and for years over a decade certainly in the 80s and and a lot of the 90s I would recommend that they read The Gulag Archipelago just out of tribute to his courage in writing that book”
