Happiness for All : Living the Dream ?

چکیده
Sukhov went off to sleep, and he was completely content. Fate had been kind in many ways that day; he hadn’t been put in the cells, the gang had not been sent to the Socialist Community Center, he’d fiddled himself an extra bowl of porridge for dinner. . . . The day had gone by without a single cloud— almost a happy day. There were three thousand six hundred and fiftythree days like that in his sentence, from reveille to lights out. The three extra days were because of the leap years. — David Malouf, quoting Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich
