Story Description: If you were starving, what would you do for food? "Condensed Milk" tells the story of a political prisoner in a Russian gulag (a forced-labor camp) who is faced with a choice: stay in the gulag—working and starving—or escape from the prison and risk dying. What choice would you make? Historical Context: From 1929 to 1953, Joseph Stalin was the dictator of the Soviet Union. His goal was to transform the Soviet Union from a poor society into a world superpower.

What inference can you make about a Russian prisoner described as a "political prisoner"? The prisoner opposed Joseph Stalin. The prisoner supported Joseph Stalin. The prisoner voted for Joseph Stalin. The prisoner worked for Joseph Stalin.
