Zhyznia (Life) by Oleh Sentsov, a Ukrainian film director who spent five years in Russian prisons on fabricated charges. "Zhyznia" — a deliberately distorted word for "life" — became a symbol of the prison experience, where life is deformed but does not cease.

The book collects stories, notes, and reflections written behind bars. Sentsov writes without pathos, with bitter humor and the courage of a man who refused to give up.
