" is there literature where the soviet people were happy with their lot in the soviet union?" Of course. It was a propaganda regime after all, so there are tons of books where the heroic simple workers or even children fight along red soldieres or party members against corruption and the various evils of capitalism. I have some lying around and they are interesting, to get a feel of the time, but are not really the greatest literature ever written. Because to get success as a writer, it was encouraged to write like this. In the sense, that you would loose permission to write and publish, or worse, if the official thought you work was not helping the progressive spirit.
