Not much is said about the protagonist's cultural background in "Condensed Milk". He does refer to himself and other prisoners as "politicals":

'There was no reason for us politicals to be there . . .' This most likely means the protagonist is an educated man, possibly a writer or a journalist whose words and work was deemed dangerous by the Russian government.

Such a background helps the protagonist understand how things really work at the camp. He knows the offer to escape is a trap. He is smart and cunning enough to get some condensed milk out of the deal and then to break it off. He uses his intelligence to stay alive a little longer.

<h3>Who is  Varlam Shalamov?</h3>

"Condensed Milk" is a short story by Russian author Varlam Shalamov (1907-1982). It was written based on the author's experience as a prisoner at a Gulag, a forced-labor camp.

The name and previous history of the protagonist are not revealed. He does not belong to the same group as the thieves, for example. He was arrested for being "political", which leads to assumptions about his background. He is most likely educated, which means he can be seen as a threat to the government for having his own opinions and the power to express them.

In conclusion, the protagonist of "Condensed Milk" uses his intelligence and knowledge to remain alive.

Write one effective paragraph on why I should start watching Teen wolf?
pogonyaev
1. Creature mythology

Despite the name, Teen Wolf isn’t just about werewolves. It includes banshees, kitsune, berserkers, oni, wendigo, hellhounds , and other shapeshifters. Hunters are also part of the Teen Wolf mythology, creating an ever-evolving dynamic with their supernatural counterparts. The variety of creatures and their successful integration into the overall storyline keeps Teen Wolf novel and engaging, even after five seasons.

2. Compelling stories

As new creatures appear on the scene we get interesting and suspenseful story arcs to accompany their arrival. Teen Wolf is grounded in good writing and strong storylines. The story arc of Season 3 centered on Japanese spirits and supernatural beings while incorporating the history of the American government’s internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II. Each season has provided interesting narratives through a changing cast of characters.

3. Engaging performances

Tyler Posey plays Alpha werewolf Scott McCall Teen Wolf also stars fan favorites Dylan O'Brien as Stiles, HollandRoden as Lydia, and ArdenCho as Kira.

4. Teen life

As well as having smart stories with well-written dialogue, Teen Wolf never forgets the challenges of being a teenager. The awkwardness of teenage life—making friends, navigating romantic life, dealing with parents, and just growing up—plays out on screen. Most days it’s hard to be an adolescent, but an adolescent with supernatural powers creates unexpected challenges. During Season 4, character Malia Tate returns to human society after eight years of living as a coyote, she has to adjust to normal human behavior and even learn math as she returns to school amongst mostly regular teens.


5. Forbidding villains

A hallmark of an interesting television show is a moral complexity to its characters, particularly the villains. Throughout the series, we have seen foes becomes friends and found those thought to be allies turn out to be villains. In Teen Wolf it’s more complex than just humans against creatures. Some supernatural creatures try to do the right thing, while others have evil intent, as is true with humans. Season 5 had a horror movie vibe and a trio of terrifying villains called the Dread Doctors.

6. Fan favorite

Teen Wolf has an intense fan base, and in return, the show is very involved with its fans. Tyler Posey and Teen Wolf creator Jeff Davis attended an exhibition of fan art commissioned to promote Season 5. In January 2015 Teen Wolf launched a fan competition, Creature Feature, to create a new monster. The winning entry, by Jessica Short, was a creature called a Slaugh, which can devour the souls of the innocent. The fan-driven Sterek Campaign Charity Project raised $25,000 for a wolf sanctuary and won MTV’s Fandom Feat of the Year in 2014. The loyal fans can’t get enough of Teen Wolf, so MTV has not one, but two after-shows—Wolf Watch and The After After Show. Both of these after-shows have fun fan segments each week. Teen Wolf is a very inclusive community.

7. The bromance

The key relationship in Teen Wolf is that between Scott McCall and his best friend “Stiles” Stilinski. The two actors are friends in real life, having lived together, along with castmate Tyler Hoechlin, during the filming of Seasons 1 and 2. When you see Posey and O’Brien on screen, you can’t miss their great chemistry. Their on-screen portrayal of two young men who have been friends since childhood has resulted in some of the most moving scenes in the series.
8. Scary stuff

Teen Wolf is scary without being gory. Some of the creatures on the show are downright terrifying, and the writing builds up characters in ways that make them psychologically disturbing. The frightening locations of Teen Wolf amp up the scare power of the series. Chases in darkened school hallways and eerie woods give the series that extra chill factor. There’s an abundance of abandoned buildings in Beacon Hills, but other scary locations include the burned remains of the Hale Family house, an empty Chernobyl-esque Russian facility, the creepy lair of the Dread Doctors, the Oak Creek internment camp, and the run-down psychiatric hospital known as Eichen House. The scenes meant to frighten us are drawn out in a way that increases the tension, using dialogue to emphasize the impact.


9. Strong female characters

The women on Teen Wolf aren’t damsels waiting to be rescued, but powerful and unique individuals. Holland Rodenas Lydia, Crystal Reed as Allison, ArdenCho as Kira, and Shelley Hennigas Malia play a wide spectrum of teen characters that give the show a richness and complexity without resorting to stereotypes.

10. Comedic dialogue

When a show has good writing and strong acting like Teen Wolf does, it can be dramatic and scary while also being quite funny. Stiles is the most obvious comedic character, both intentionally through his sarcasm and unintentionally through his awkwardness.
