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.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer and Explanation:

Things can be changed if we transfer text to audio, or vice-versa. It has been shown many times in Ray Bradbury’s Dark They Were, and Golden-Eyed. Radio version and written version of tell the same story, but they use different techniques specified to their mediums.

Dark They Were and Golden Eyed by Ray Bradbury is a great story. It intensifies the themes of fear, change and symbol. The author has used techniques of similes, metaphors, and personification through which it explains and convey to the reader story, very powerfully.

When we talk about narrating the story through radio, it becomes more interesting because we need different characters according to the script. Narrating story through radio give listener more interesting ground as they can feel the pitch of voices and also they can analyze the feelings of the character. The music behind the story also creates a great effect. So overall it becomes more interesting to listen to the radio version of the story.

Reading the story also provides a great charm for the reader as they can create their version of voices in their minds and can analyze the situation through different writing techniques.  

When we talk about Dark They Were and Golden Eyed it would be more interesting to listen to them because the music behind the story is creating a more fearful effect as it is the main theme of the story.
