 One of Russia's worst days
October 7th, 2006 was a clear, almost warm Saturday afternoon. For a worker from Novaya Gazeta, it was a day of getting the Monday edition ready. So it was that I was conducting this and keeping a column free at Anya's request, material about torture in Chechnya. Anya was always precise and obligatory, and if for some objective reason she was late on an article, she always called. But on that day…
Lunchtime came and went, then it was 4:05 pm and still no text message or call to the office. I then called. It rang a long time. But how they seem alarmingly short when people are just busy! But I had a soothing thought: maybe Anya was still at the hospital with her mother (we knew she was going to go there) and just had just turned the ringer off to avoid being disturbed.
If only our lives were subject to normal, human logic!
And then the terrible news — such news gets broadcast instantaneously. And somehow you just know it, when it is the truth.
At 4:04 pm Anya was no more.

On May 28th, 2010, the House of Journalists in the capital hosted a discussion of the topic: “What do we know about Anna Politkovskaya?” The International League of Young Journalists organized the discussion with the support of the Union of Russian Journalists. It turns out that we know very little, and we do not have a desire, and are unlikely ever to have a desire, to explore her works. The meeting, however, was able to discuss whether journalists were able to change the nation. Twelve people came to hear about Anna, and they learned about her from people who knew her: ‘Novaya Gazeta’ staff commentator Vyacheslav Izmailov, ‘Novaya Gazeta’ deputy editor Vitaly Yaroshevsky, and Vitaly Chelyshev, deputy editor of ‘Journalist’ magazine.
