A study of the work which won Solzhenitsyn the Nobel Prize in 1970. It is an account of a day in the life of a barely literate Russian peasant in one of Stalin's labour camps. The study gauges the political and literary impact of the book and examines its universal, intrinsic qualities. |
| Synopsis: |
Alexander Solzhenitsyn was an unknown author until the publication of "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" in 1962, the book that was to win him the Nobel Prize in 1970. It is an account of a barely literate Russian peasant's surviving a single day in one of Stalin's labour camps. It depicted the intricacies and resilience of the human spirit in a style comparable with Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky. This study gauges the political and literary impact that the book has made in Russia and abroad, and examines its more universal, intrinsic qualities. |
