My class just finished reading " One day in the life of Ivan Denisovich" and a lot of people in my class said that in the book Ivan Denisovich made generalizations about people based on their ethnicity. Is that true, because I don't remember that. Can someone give me an example.

Is this homework or a discussion you've had with classmates?

It's not homework, we already finished the book. We were just discussing this with our classmates and I didn't recall any of that happening. I found the book boring in the beginning, so I think that contributed to why I don't remember.
