Synopsis:
In an at-war nation which has shut down dissent and reportage, how can we glimpse behind the curtain? Discussing Unpeace: Russian Lives at War, Åsne Seierstad (author of The Bookseller of Kabul and called ‘the supreme non-fiction writer of her generation’) draws upon the testimony of Wagner Group defector Andrey Medvedev and her own time living in Russia to craft an intimate yet far-reaching, unflinching portrait of Russian life in the Putin age. Chaired by Isabel Hilton.
