Mr. Alexander(,)

Greetings Mr. Alexander, I hope that all your work will be(develops) in a right way. A few days ago I finished to read(reading) your book “a(A) day(Day) in the life(Life) of Ivan denisobich(Denisobich)”, that(which) I think that is my favorite book that I (have) read this year. I think this is a great history(story) that involves action, angry(anger) and how is the life of a prisoner in a jail in Moscow (really is). This history(story) combine(combines) real places and the personification and the language of the characters introduce you like in the real life and make better the plot. But I have to say that I dislike the final of the book(,)(;) this is because the way that you finish(finished) the book is different that(from what) I expected. I think(thought) that Ivan will(would) scape(escape) from the jail and will return with their(his) family, but then I analyze(analyzed) that the title of the book (and it) is “a day” not “the great escape of Ivan” so I think that the story is according to the title, but despite this the book is very a good and emotive.

I need to say that the way that you give the personification of all the characters is excellent also the different treatment of the prisoners and the police officers its(is) very good because this introduce(introduces) you in the story like in the real life. Also, another thing that I like(liked) about the book is how you describe(described) the natural places or the area that surround(surrounds) the characters. For example you mention how the ice and the snow cover the buildings, the barbed wire surrounding the prison etc. (It all) gives you a visual representation and feel that you are in jail with the coolest weather. Also you make this with all the things that Ivan see(sees)(,)(;) for example you describes(describe) the food that (is) give(given) to the prisoners or the different tools that Ivan use(used) to resolve their(his) problems(.)

So for me this book have(has) an awesome story with action because this book its(is) like your autobiography. I think that you combine this kind of things with different aspects of the story that make him a character that give examples of how to work in group and the real friends (should) never be separated. Thanks for reading this letter of what I think about of your book, I hope you answer me if you read my letter.
