Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich. “This brutal, shattering glimpse of the fate of millions of Russians under Stalin shook Russia and shocked the world when it first appeared.”
Should have read this humbling but uplifting book a long time ago. Places you in a hard labour camp in Siberia feeling the struggle - and the simple pleasure of a crust of bread - first hand.
