«Journal de Maïdan» is the political diary by Andreï Kourkov about the Ukrainian revolution, published by Liana Levi in paperback (288 pages, in French).
Andreï Kourkov, author of «El Pingüino», put his next novel on hold to go almost daily to Maidan Square in Kiev from November 2013 to April 2014. Based on notes taken on the ground, he recounts daily life in the midst of revolution and offers a view that is both political and intimate of the events that shook Ukraine, with the smoke of the barricades as the country's new emblem.
Work in French, translated from Russian by Paul Lequesne, published on May 20, 2014 by Liana Levi.
