One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich

Foreshadowing his later detailed accounts of the Soviet prison-camp system, Solzhenitsyn's classic portrayal of life in the gulag is all the more powerful for being slighter and more personal than those later monumental volumes.

Prefigurand relatarile sale detaliate ulterioare despre sistemul sovietic de inchisori, portretizarea clasica a vietii in gulag a lui Soljenitin este cu atat mai puternica pentru a fi mai subtire si mai personala decat acele volume monumentale de mai tarziu.
