Coffee, Cigarettes and Music – A Journey into the Heart of a Forgotten War
What happens beyond the front lines, beyond the daily headlines? Coffee, Cigarettes and Music takes readers to a place where global attention rarely reaches – the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic, in eastern Ukraine.
In the summer of 2023, a small group of Norwegian journalists and activists set out for a region that has been shaped by war since 2014 – long before the Russian Federation’s so-called “special operation” brought renewed global focus in February 2022. But what they find there is more complex, more contradictory – and more human – than any political analysis.
Amid ruined apartment blocks and conversations with soldiers, civilians, officials, and young people who have never known peace, an honest, unfiltered portrait of life under siege emerges. This is a book about propaganda and perspective, about everyday life in extraordinary circumstances, about fleeting moments of hope – and about music, cigarettes, and coffee as small escapes from a reality no one asked for.
Coffee, Cigarettes and Music is not a textbook and not a manifesto. It is a personal, unvarnished account of what happens when you truly look – in a place the world often prefers to ignore.
A powerful and thought-provoking book for anyone who wants to understand more – not just about the war, but about the people living through it.
