Inside the Dragon's Lair


The Guardian has posted its third excerpt from Anna Politkovskaya's forthcoming book A Russian Diary (to be published May 22). Politkovskaya was a crusading Russian investigative journalist who was gunned down on the stairs of her Moscow apartment building in October 2006. Today, radio stations around the world are broadcasting her reports from Chechnya to focus attention on the ongoing conflict there, despite Politskaya's unsolved murder. (See more on the killing here and more on the broadcasts here.)
