Abstract

Tchernobyl, 1986. Lena et Ivan sont deux adolescents qui s’aiment. Ils vivent dans un pays merveilleux, entre une modernité triomphante et une nature bienveillante. C’est alors qu’un incendie, dans la centrale nucléaire, bouleverse leur destin. Les deux amoureux sont sépares. Lena part avec sa famille en France, convaincue qu’Ivan est mort. Ivan, de son côté, ne peut s’éloigner de la zone, de sa terre qui, même sacrifiée, reste le pays de ses ancêtres. Il attend le retour de sa bien-aimée. Lena grandit dans un pays qui n’est pas le sien. Elle s’efforce d’oublier. Un jour, tout ce qui est enfoui remonte, revient, et elle part retrouver ce qu’elle a quitté vingt ans plus tôt.

Abstract

Surnommé « l’homme légendaire » par le Washington Post, Igor Kostine est un témoin capital de la catastrophe de Tchernobyl. Le 26 avril 1986, quelques heures seulement après l’explosion, il survole la centrale. La radioactivité est si forte que toutes ses pellicules deviennent noires. Une seule photo pourra être sauvée : elle fera le tour du monde. Surpris par l’ampleur de la catastrophe et par le silence des autorités, Igor Kostine décide de rester sur place et de vivre au milieu des 800 000 « liquidateurs » qui se succéderont sur le site de l’accident. Lui-même irradié, il n’aura de cesse, vingt années durant, de photographier la centrale et la zone interdite qui l’entoure. Son histoire se confond avec celle de Tchernobyl.Présent en première ligne, Igor Kostine nous délivre des photographies exceptionnelles montrant des hommes déplaçant des blocs radioactifs à mains nues, l’évacuation des villages, le désespoir et le courage des populations, la construction du sarcophage au-dessus de la centrale, les cimetières de machines radioactives, les jardins et les vergers contaminés redevenus des terres sauvages où l’être humain n’a plus sa place…

Abstract

"On the morning of April 26, 1986, Europe witnessed the worst nuclear disaster in history: the explosion of a reactor at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Soviet Ukraine. Dozens died of radiation poisoning, fallout contaminated half the continent, and thousands fell ill. In Chernobyl, Serhii Plokhy draws on new sources to tell the dramatic stories of the firefighters, scientists, and soldiers who heroically extinguished the nuclear inferno. He lays bare the flaws of the Soviet nuclear industry, tracing the disaster to the authoritarian character of the Communist party rule, the regime's control over scientific information, and its emphasis on economic development over all else. Today, the risk of another Chernobyl looms in the mismanagement of nuclear power in the developing world. A moving and definitive account, Chernobyl is also an urgent call to action"--Provided by publisher An in depth look at the stories of firefighters, scientists, and soldiers who worked to extinguish the nuclear inferno of Chernobyl identifies the flaws of the Soviet nuclear industry.
