***LONGLISTED FOR THE 2024 MOORE PRIZE FOR HUMAN RIGHTS WRITING***

Read this book. Do not postpone it until you are supposedly strong and ready for reading. If you postpone it, you will find yourself defenseless in the face of evil.

In dark times, a journalist has only one mission: to record everything that happens. It is time to slow down and listen to the voice of one person.

On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. From that day, the award-winning independent journalist Katerina Gordeeva has traveled to refugee centers across Europe to document the human voice and the cost of war. Take My Grief Away reveals twenty-four raw, moving first-person accounts of people united in their pain and their immediate experiences of the harshness and futility of war. These twenty-four voices will transform what you think you know about war, pain, and human nature.
