“My truth,” writes the author of the book, Polina Zherebtsova, “is the truth of a civilian, an observer, a historian, a journalist, a person who, from the age of nine, recorded what was happening by hours and dates, a documentary writer.” Polina Zherebtsova was born in 1985 in the city of Grozny and lived there until she was almost twenty years old. In 1994, she began to keep diaries in which she recorded what was happening around. The diaries cover Polina's childhood, adolescence and youth during the Chechen wars. Study, first love, quarrels with parents - something that is familiar to any teenager - side by side with the bombing, hunger, devastation and poverty.
Since 2002, Polina Zherebtsova began working as a journalist. She was admitted to the Union of Journalists of Russia, to the Finnish PEN Club. Laureate of the International Prize. Janusz Korczak in two categories: for a military story and diary entries (2006). Finalist of the A. Sakharov Prize "For journalism as an act" (2012). Author of five books about the Caucasus. P. Zherebtsova's prose has been translated into 14 languages.
