[Marxism] test - please ignore
Anna Politkovskaya
Crusading Russian journalist famed for her exposés of corruption and the
Chechen war
David Hearst
Monday October 9, 2006
The Guardian
If one word sums up the life and work of Anna Politkovskaya, Russia's
foremost investigative reporter assassinated at the age of 48, it is
bravery. She could have chosen another life. Born and raised in New York,
the daughter of Ukrainian UN diplomats, she was part of a Soviet elite that
looked after its own. As a child, she had the best of both worlds: her
parents could smuggle banned books out of the country, so she could write
her dissertation about whomever she pleased. She alighted upon a poet
shunned by Moscow, the émigré Marina Tsvetayeva.
