Crying
Wolf
This is an account of the Chechen war, written after I’d spent
many months in and around Chechnya covering the fighting and its impact
on locals. Crying Wolf is the story of the one million Chechens who,
following the collapse of the Soviet Union, found themselves cast as
the enemy of the new Russian state. Trapped between a leader who felt
compelled to assert Chechen independence and the huge Russian army, the
ordinary post-Soviet people of Chechnya found themselves caught up in
a war which destroyed their land, their homes and their families.
