Chienne de Guerre Book Description
Nivat disguised herself as a Chechen peasant to get into the region Russia had closed to journalists. She remained in Chechnya for six months and reported what she saw to her newspaper Liberation in Paris. This volume tells the story of the war too, but the focus is on Nivat's personal experience, her travels, the people who helped her, the risks involved, the profound suffering she witnessed, and her admiration and sympathy for the Chechen people. c.
