not a great deal happens? how far into it did you get? it can't have been more than a chapter...while we're on the ruskies, dostoyevsky's crime and punishment is well worth a read, still as relevant today as when it was written.
two more Ruski stories worth a read:
"Alexander Dolguns story- an American in the Gulag"
written by Alexander Dolgun and some other bloke.
A young American who was abducted by the Rusky authorities shortly after WW2 and survived many years in Russian Prisons.
and
"Gulag Archipeligo"
IIRC it was written by Solzenhytszen (pardon my dodgy spelling)
About the Russian prison camps
(gulag=prison camp, archipeligo= the camps were like islands in the middle of nowhere)
I keep my fists to myself
