Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Stark . . . the story of how one falsely accused convict and his fellow prisoners survived or perished in an arctic slave labor camp after the war."-TimeFrom the icy blast of reveille through the sweet release of sleep, Ivan Denisovich endures. A common carpenter, he is one of millions viciously imprisoned for countless years on baseless charges,sentenced to the waking nightmare of the Soviet work camps in Siberia. Even in the face of degrading hatred, where life is reduced to a bowl of gruel and a rare cigarette, hope and dignity prevail. This powerful novel of fact is a scathing indictment of Communist tyranny, and an eloquent affirmation of the human spirit.The prodigious works of Alexander Solzhenitsyn, including his acclaimed The Gulag Archipelago, have secured his place in the great tradition of Russian literary giants. Ironically, One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich is the only one of his works permittedpublication in his native land.Praise for One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich"Cannot fail to arouse bitterness and pain in the heart of the reader. A literary and political event of the first magnitude."-New Statesman"Both as a political tract and as a literary work, it is in the Doctor Zhivago category."-Washington Post"Dramatic . . . outspoken . . . graphically detailed . . . a movinghuman record."-Library Journal Focuses on the brutal and dehumanizing aspects of life in a Russian concentration camp.
