The gulag system, while originally meant to ‘correct’ citizens perceived to be in contradiction to the Stalinist regime, in reality served as a graveyard for these largely innocent Soviet citizens. Many estimates place the number of inmates who died in prison camps well above a million.

Solzhenitsyn’s One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich reads in a very blunt, honest way. This is almost definitely in part due to the fact that the author had experienced many of the same hardships he wrote about. Here, he’s pictured being searched in a Gulag, note the numbers stitched onto his clothes and his attire compared to that of the guard.
