		After Tvardovsky published One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich in his Novy Mir literary journal, I was the first to write a rave review about the novel in the Literaturnaya Gazeta weekly: Later on the fact was brought up against me on many occasions.
		Dementyev, Tvardovsky's first deputy, told him: "Sasha, you will publish the novel and lose the journal." And Tvardovsky told him: "Why do I need a journal if I cannot publish this?" When he got the go-ahead to publish the novel, he rushed to his wife, kissed her, and started crying.
		Recently, Olga, Tvardovsky's younger daughter, told me: "I keep wondering for whose sake father had to face the death fire." Today the novel's political component has virtually lost its relevance so if it was used to knock on the door of the Nobel Prize Committee, they would probably open the door.

		Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn emerged from total obscurity in November 1962 when his novel "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" was published by Novy Mir, a Moscow literary journal.
		The portrait of Alexander Tvardovsky, the editor of Novy Mir, is particularly vivid and controversial.
		Tvardovsky hesitated to accept the phenomenon of samizdat (self- published literature) but by the final years of his life we see him praising samizdat authors and listening to the BBC.

	The Oak and The Calf
		Aleksandr Tvardovsky, the editor of Novy Mir, thought he was dealing with a provincial school teacher, a survivor of the prison camps, a brave and talented writer.
		As for Tvardovsky, we are told that he was in constant motion "between his dossier and his soul." More tellingly, he felt threatened by Moscow intersections: "He had lost the habit of moving about the streets, except by car.
		Solzhenitsyn cannot be said to have been loyal to his first editor; indeed, he seeks constantly to be "excused from gratitude." His mission was to wound the world with news of Gulag, the tens of millions of dead and dying, by whatever means possible.

		Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn holds the honour of being the author to break the news to the world of Russia's treatment of its people.
		Thanks to the confidence of magazine Novy Mir's editor, Alexander Tvardovsky, the novel was published under the name, One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich.
		We are more removed from this half of the novel, perhaps because we cannot rely on the emotional connection that the friendship between Tvardovsky and Solzhenitsyn provided in the first half.

		When he entered East Prussia with the Red Army, he sharply criticized the atrocities against the German civilian population and was arrested in 1945 and sentenced to a ten-year term in the Gulag for fostering bourgeois humanism and for "compassion towards the enemy".
		In the sharashka Marfino he met Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.
		It was Kopelev who first urged Aleksandr Tvardovsky, editor of the literary journal Novyi mir, to publish Solzhenitsyn's short novel about the Gulag, "One day in the life of Ivan Denisovich." The appearance of the work in "Novyi mir" in November 1962, with approval of the Soviet leadership, caused a sensation.

		Charge 1: On or about June 1953, A.T. Tvardovsky caused to be published an installment of his poem "Distance Beyond Distance" (Za daliu dal'), in which he lambasted the repetitive formula typical in Soviet novels.
		Lastly, we have the words of the accused, A.T. Tvardovsky, himself, who, under tremendous pressure and knowing full well that his days at Novy Mir were numbered, finally confessed to the Presidium of the Union of Soviet Writers on 11 August 1954 that he had published "ideologically defective" articles.
