Annotation

"Boys of Zinc" is the third book from the series "Voices of Utopia" by the 2015 Nobel Prize laureate Svetlana Aleksievich. The narrators of the book - war veterans, mothers, widows, nurses... - tell us the truth about the war in Afghanistan (1979-1989), which the Soviet government hid from its own people for years. Svetlana Aleksievich brings to the reader the bare emotions of those who left Afghanistan and, therefore, the translation preserves both the intonations and the disorganized, fragmented impressions and assessments of the war, which left a heavy mark on the lives of each character. The book also includes minutes from court proceedings (1992-1994), which took place in Belarus after the publication of "Zink Boys". At the trials, the authoritarian regime brought out its own real characters against the writer. As for the title of the book: although the Georgian equivalent of the chemical element Zincum is zinc, we chose to leave the original "zinc" in the title of the book, because this word established in the language of the people accurately reflects the tragedy of the era - it was under this name that the coffins from Afghanistan, in which a distinguished Georgian The boys were engrossed.
