Hello, dear...

I’m finishing reading «An American Tragedy» by Theodore Dreiser. I’ve read all his collected works. It’s unusual to read an American author. Hemingway doesn’t count. He wrote about war and fishing. Americans have a different lifestyle compared to Europeans. It’s a bit tedious at times, the library here is extremely sparse, and it’s impossible to bring in your own books. The situation in Detention Center-1 has become a real mess. They used to beat and torture us, but letters and newspapers arrived on time, walks were an hour long, and phone access was only on weekends with a huge queue. It’s the worst detention center in Russia. Even Vladimir is better. In the 20s of June, the trial will start. After the new sentence with additional time, I’ll be moved to another region. I would like to be some place warm, like your Rostov-on-Don, but usually, they send particularly malicious repeat offenders to the East or North, like they sent Navalny. I had the same investigator as he did. Putin gave Vidyukov an order because of me, and for Navalny, he promoted him to a general’s position. Hugging you many times, yours, A. Shestun.
