"One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" is a fantastic read. My English teacher recommended it to me around the same time I was learning about Russia under Stalin. So important to see the human element to the millions that were sent to Siberia. The trading of tobacco and trying to get as much into a tin as possible seems to have stuck in my head.

A fantastic round-up, Henry (with the added benefit that most, apart from Ulysses, are also readable in a day). Happy Bloomsday.
