Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn: One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich (Everyman's Library (Cloth)) (1995, Everyman's Library)

Review of "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich (Everyman's Library (Cloth))" on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

First off, I will warn: This book can be slow at times. Solzhenitsyn spares no words at describing the plight of the GULAG prisoner. The title is quite literally One Day in the Life of (Titular Character and GULAG prisoner) Ivan Denisovich.

Solzhenitsyn's work is a beautiful work looking into the real life struggles of the citizens of Soviet Russia.
