About the book: 2003 / ...Sakhalin camps. Here the convoy beats for the slightest offense. Here they shoot over the heads of prisoners - just for fun. Here prisoners ask God for death as deliverance - or LEARN TO SURVIVE! But a survivor in hell will survive anywhere. And the hard labor of life in the taiga village of “exiled settlers” is a true PARADISE for those who, behind the barbed wire of the zone, have already learned not to be afraid of ANYTHING AT ALL!..
