WINNER OF THE ORWELL PRIZE WITH A FOREWORD FROM MARGARET ATWOOD
'This book would always have been important evidence that the
Ukraine people were suffering criminal attack. Written by a poet,
it is also a work of literature, published after the author lost
her life doing her research. It is an icon of a young woman’s
heroism' Philippa Gregory Destined to be a classic, a poet's
powerful look at the courage of resistance.When Russia invaded
Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Victoria Amelina was busy writing a
novel, taking part in the country's literary scene, and parenting
her son. Then she became someone new: a war crimes researcher and
the chronicler of extraordinary women like herself who joined the
resistance. These heroines include Evgenia, a prominent lawyer
turned soldier, Oleksandra, who documented tens of thousands of war
crimes and won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2022, and Yulia, a librarian
who helped uncover the abduction and murder of a children's book
author.Everyone in Ukraine knew that Amelina was documenting the
war. She photographed the ruins of schools and cultural centers,
she recorded the testimonies of survivors and eyewitnesses to
atrocities. And she slowly turned back into a storyteller, writing
what would become this book.On the evening of June 27th, 2023,
Amelina and three international writers stopped for dinner in the
embattled Donetsk region. Whena Russian cruise missile hit the
restaurant, Amelina suffered grievous head injuries, and lost
consciousness. She died on July 1st.She was thirty-seven. She left
behind an incredible account of the ravages of war and the cost of
resistance. Honest, intimate, and wry, this book will be celebrated
as a classic.
