«Un día en la vida de Iván Denisovich» is the novel by Alexander Solzhenitsin, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (196 pages, in Spanish).
The novel recounts a full day in the life of Iván Denisovich, a prisoner sentenced to a labour camp in the Siberian steppe. Amid the cold, hunger and humiliations of daily routine, the protagonist tries to preserve his dignity and fortitude; his story becomes a testimony to human survival in the Soviet gulags.
It belongs to the Biblioteca de Plata collection; includes a prologue by Mario Vargas Llosa, a biographical sketch by Jesús García Gabaldón and a translation by J. A. Mercado, J. Bravo and M. Chao.
A classic 20th-century title, for those seeking Russian literature and historical fiction about Soviet labour camps.
