SOOOO true Vlad. In high school my son's teacher had a list of books to chose from to read and make a report. The list was horrible! He told the students they could substitute and add another book to the list but it had to be approved by him. So my son asked to read and report "One Day In The Life Of Ivan Denisovich by Alexander Solzhenitsyn. The teacher wouldn't approve it. We have the book here at home and still do. Its an amazing book I read several years ago.

The Life Of Ivan Denisovich by Alexander Solzhenitsyn.

Wonderful book!

If the terrible Russian Gulags couldn't completely snuff out the indomitable human spirit can anything or anyone?
