This book, the result of five years of research, presents an accessible but comprehensive account of what really happened. From the desperate fight to prevent a burning reactor core from irradiating eastern europe, to the self-sacrifice of the heroic men who entered fields of radiation so strong that machines wouldn't work, to the surprising truth about the legendary 'chernobyl divers', all the way through to the ussr's final show-trial. The historical narrative is interwoven with a story of the author's own spontaneous journey to ukraine's still-abandoned city of pripyat and the wider chernobyl zone.
