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.
