The murder of Anna Politkovskaya in Russia is grim evidence of the danger faced by journalists passionately committed to writing the truth about wars and politics. A longtime critic of the Russian government, particularly with regard to its policies in Chechnya, Politkovskaya was a special correspondent for the liberal Moscow newspaper Novaya gazeta. In "A Small Corner of Hell", Politkovskaya offers an insider"s view on those caught in the crossfire of conflict. She recounts the everyday horrors of living in the midst of war, examines how the Chechen war has damaged Russian society, and takes a hard look at the ways people on both sides profited from it. "A Small Corner of Hell" ensures that despite Politkovskaya"s tragic death her words will not be erased. Формат издания: 15,5 см х 23 см.
