Dark, Darker, Darkest....
Dark: Living in a Communist Bloc Country.
Darker: Living in a Hospital in that country.
Darkest: Living in a Hospital in that country in trapped in a deformed body, lacking 3 limbs.
Escape Route: Use of highly intelligent mind to read, and create scenarios of the imagination.
For all of the darkness, this is a unique, and sometime humorous perspective of a teenage boy.
My carps would be that (1) Ivan seems way too omniscient and knowledgeable for someone with limited resources; and (2) There was more emphasis than I would have liked on Ivan's "hui".

The Invisible Life of Ivan Isaenko
I have been delaying this review because I felt the need to be nice and yet to be honest about my opinion. I found the subject matter very depressing and the descriptions of the characters agonizing. This was one of the most upsetting books that I have ever read. I don't think my book club would like it. Sorry....
