Voices from Chernobyl

This book brings the voices of the people of Belarus to life, sharing first-hand accounts of what happened during the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Svetlana Alexievich interviewed hundreds of individuals affected by the meltdown, including firefighters, disaster-cleanup technicians, and innocent citizens. In this monologue-style book, readers gain an inside view into the minds of those who lived through the fear, anger, and uncertainty caused by the worst nuclear reactor accident in history. No spin, no accusations, and no summary judgment- just raw and powerful accounts of the pain and aftermath of the tragedy.
