I had to read this for high school and to this day I have never read a more boring book.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn is a survivor of the Soviet Prison system and an iconic author.
A great description of life under the brutal confines of communism where every spoken word is carefully filtered to prevent being sent to the Gulag..
I had to read it for a Comp class but found it very interesting.
Very compelling book.
Should be required reading in our schools..
One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich is a tough read.
Interesting, fast moving, and informative.
Not being one who enjoys fiction, I found the story of life in a Soviet gulag by someone who actually survived the experience to be quite inviting.
One of my all time favorites.
