An intimate yet epic portrait of modern Russia, from the award-winning journalist and bestselling author of The Bookseller of Kabul.

“A daring on-the-ground work of reportage with a distinctly human feel.” —Financial Times

Today’s Russia is one of the most closed countries in the world. Even as its leadership tries to wield unprecedented influence, little is known about the hopes, fears, and daily struggles of its people. How can we truly understand a country that silences its citizens and targets foreign journalists―and has even made it illegal to say it is at war?

In her brave, riveting new book, bestselling journalist Åsne Seierstad travels into the heart of Russia to find answers―from the impoverished Arctic north to the cultural elites of the big cities; from pro-Putin youth groups to dissident journalists struggling to report the truth. Along the way, she takes us behind closed doors to meet Russians from all walks of life: teachers, taxi drivers, war widows, and banned writers. She gets to know a young soldier who fled the battlefield in Ukraine, and the mothers, sisters, and wives of the fallen―who may be last voices still able to protest the regime.

Drawing upon Seierstad’s deep knowledge of Russia and her unparalleled access, Never Say War paints an illuminating and expansive portrait of a misunderstood people, showing how they are navigating life under an increasingly authoritarian regime―a story with urgent resonance for readers today.

批評家のレビュー

“A totally unprecedented, behind the scenes portrait of Putin's Russia at war. Astonishing. A major work.” —Antony Beevor, author of Russia: Revolution and Civil War and The Second World War
“Superlative…A book of unusual power.” —The Times of London
“Extraordinary…A journalistic book that moves beyond journalism, mixing in cultural history with reportage…Scenes are written with a reporter’s eye and a novelist’s touch.”—Financial Times
“Hypnotically good. Seierstad has outdone herself with a book that reveals deep and troubling truths about our time. In her telling, Russians emerge as a unique people, big-hearted, black-humored and self-reliant, but nurtured by a tragic sense of their own history.”—Jon Lee Anderson, author of Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life and To Lose a War: The Rise and Fall of the Taliban
“Novelistic in scope, insightful, and humane…Seierstad’s steadfast empathy and personal warmth give her a direct line to the motivations of everyone from blood-soaked mercenaries to Putin’s most implacable critics.”—Howard Amos, author of Russia Starts Here: Real Lives in the Ruins of Empire
“Fascinating…A vivid depiction of wartime life in the heart of Russia.”—Irish Times
““What kind of man enlists to fight in Ukraine? A Russian soldier…tells his heart-wrenching story to Åsne Seierstad. Her book takes readers on a journey to St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Siberia. A necessary read.” —Jana Bakunina, author of The Good Russian: In Search of a Nation’s Soul
