500 Diaries originally written in Russian. Originally
published in German in 2014 as: Ukrainisches tagebuch.
This edition translated from the French edition: Journal
de Maidan / translated by Paul Lesquesne
520 -16 C, sunlight, silence. I drove the children to school,
then went to see the revolution. I walked between the
tents. Talked with rev-olutionaries. They were weary
today. The air was thick with the smell of old campfires.
Ukraine Diaries is acclaimed writer Andrey Kurkov's first-
hand account of the ongoing crisis in his country. From
his flat in Kiev, just five hundred yards from
Independence Square, Kurkov can smell the burning
barricades and hear the sounds of grenades and gunshot.
Kurkov's diaries begin on the first day of the pro-
European protests in November, and describe the violent
clashes in the Maidan, the impeachment of Yanukovcyh,
Russia's annexation of Crimea and the separatist uprisings
in the east of Ukraine. Going beyond the headlines, they
give vivid insight into what it's like to live through -
and try to make sense of - times of intense political
unrest
