Books by Anna Politkovskaya

From the author of the internationally acclaimed Putin's Russia and A Russian Diary. Until her murder in October 2006, Anna Politkovskaya wrote for the Russian newspaper Novaya gazeta, winning international fame for her reporting on the Chechen wars and, more generally, on Russian politics and state corruption.

A Russian Diary is the book that Anna Politkovskaya had recently completed when she was murdered in a contract killing in Moscow.

Anna Politkovskaya, a correspondent for Novaya gazeta, has gathered together a collection of articles and columns which offer a rare insider's view of life in Chechnya. The book recounts the horrors of living in the midst of war, and how conflict has affected Russian society.
