I am a Cechen!

Összefoglaló

I Am a Chechen! offers a lyrical fusion of exotic legends, stories, and memories of a land of wondrous beauty, site of genocides past and present, and the author€™s ancestral home. Haunted by memories of the land he deserted, Sadulaev tells the stories of those who stayed behind. He brings to life his friends€”now reduced to pieces of flesh€”revisiting their first loves, their passion for rock music, their quests for martyrdom. And he immerses us in the intoxicating beauty of his homeland€™s mountains, blossoms and the flocks of migratory swallows that fill its skies. I Am a Chechen! is an intensely personal journey through the carnage of the war, exploring the pain, the challenge, and above all the meaning of being a Chechen.
