Victory Celebrations/Prisoners/the Love Girl and the Innocent

In March 1953, seventeen years before he received the Nobel Prize, Alexander Solzhenitsyn ended his term in the Ekibastuz labor camp with the play Victory Celebrations and seven of the twelve scenes of Prisoners committed to memory. During his ensuing internal exile, he completed Prisoners and started another play, The Love-Girl and the Innocent. The result is a dramatic trilogy focusing on events of the year 1945: the Russian army's advance into East Prussia and the "repatriation" of former Russian prisoners of war to the Gulag labor camps.
