"Zinc Boys" is the third book in the fiction and documentary series "Voices of Utopia" by Svetlana Alexievich, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature "for her polyphonic work - a monument to the suffering and courage of our time." Without this book, which has long been a world bestseller, it is already impossible to imagine either the history of the Afghan war or the history of the last years of Soviet power, finally undermined by this war. The grief of mothers is inescapable, their desire to know the truth about how and why their sons fought in Afghanistan and died is understandable. But, having learned this truth, many of them were horrified and rejected it. Svetlana Alexievich's book was tried "for slander" - in a real court, with a prosecutor, public accusers and "support groups" in power and the press. The materials of this shameful trial are also included in the new edition of "Zinc Boys".
