Description
A harrowing glimpse into the daily struggle for survival in a Soviet gulag, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich is a powerful portrayal of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable hardship.
Translated by Ralph Parker, this Penguin Modern Classics edition brings to life the brutal realities of life in a Soviet labour camp, where the simplest things - a piece of bread, a bowl of soup, a book - become luxuries that can mean the difference between life and death.
Written by a man who knew the horrors of the gulag firsthand, Solzhenitsyn's novel is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a powerful indictment of the inhumanity of the Soviet system.
