A WOMAN UNDER SURVEILLANCE tells the real-life story of Tatiana Zunshine's fearless fight against the Soviet KGB to free her husband, a political prisoner, from the Siberian Gulag. Zach Zunshine was thirty-three when the Soviet machine unjustly accused him of anti-Soviet slander and sentenced him to three years of hard labor, when, in truth, his only "crime" was his unwavering insistence on his right to leave the Soviet Union. Forty years later, his wife comes forward to tell the tale.
A thrilling roller-coaster ride filled with action and suspense, this memoir centers around the years of Zach's imprisonment. Follow alongside the author and her husband as she takes you through the terrors of numerous abductions, KGB interrogations, physical assaults, and constant surveillance. Accompany her into Soviet prisons and penal colonies, KGB headquarters, hunger strikes, and sit-in protests. And celebrate with her as the couple ultimately triumphs over the KGB's every attempt to silence them.
A story of protest, politics, and imprisonment drawn from the annals of true history, A WOMAN UNDER SURVEILLANCE is as much a celebration of one couple's courage, wit, and resilience, offering a beacon of hope in the face of adversity.
