A devastating portrayal of Stalin's labour camps in the USSR. Though the story takes place over the course of only a single day, the novel's bleak descriptive details, darkly engrossing storyline, and compelling characters make powerfully tangible the real-life experiences of millions of Soviet prisoners under Stalin's rule.
