A Russian Diary

With a Foreword by Jon Snow




A collection of writings on recent Russian politics, focusing on Vladimir Putin's government and the 2003 parliamentary elections, by one of the greatest and bravest journalists of our time.

A Russian Diary is the book that Anna Politkovskaya had recently completed when she was murdered in a contract killing in Moscow. Covering the period from the Russian parliamentary elections of December 2003 to the tragic aftermath of the Beslan school siege in late 2005, A Russian Diary is an unflinching record of the plight of millions of Russians and a pitiless report on the cynicism and corruption of Vladimir Putin's Presidency.
