Sobre este artículo
United Kingdom: Harvill Pr, 2001. New book, 336 pages, some rubbing wear to cover. The Chechn war was supposed to be over in 1996 after the first Yeltsin campaign, but in the summer of 1999 the new Putin government decided, in their own words, to "do the job properly". Beofre all the bodies of those who died in the first campaign had been located and identified, many more thousands would be slaughtered in another round of fighting. The first account written by a Russian woman, this book is an edgy and intense study of a conflict that shows no signs of being resolved. Exasperated by the Russian governments attempts to manipulate the media coverage of the war, journalist Anna Politkovskaya undertook to go to Chechnya, to make regular reports and keep events in the public eye. . Soft Cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
Sinopsis
The first account written by a Russian woman of the Chechen conflict, "A Dirty War" is an edgy and intense study of a country in crisis. Exasperated at the Russian government's attempt to manipulate media coverage of the war in Chechnya, journalist Anna Politkovskaya set off for the front line to report back and keep events in the public eye. In a series of articles from July 1999 to February 2000 she vividly describes the atrocities and abuses of the war, whether it is the corruption at the heart of post-Communist Russia or the equally spurious arguments and abominable behaviour of the Chechens. Very much a woman's view of the conflict, Politkovskaya excorites male stupidity and brutality on both sides.
