Biography

Almaz Gatin is Lilia Chanysheva’s husband and one of the main witnesses of her political persecution. For three years he followed her prison transfers across Russia, providing his wife with essential support from the outside. His unique perspective combines love, endurance, and bearing witness, offering, in a collaboration of the two writers, a rare view into the human cost of political repression and the strength required to survive it.
