Synopsis

When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, thousands of Ukrainian citizens strapped on armour, picked up weapons and chose to risk their lives for the freedom of their homeland. Many would never return. Choosing to stay in Ukraine and cover the invasion, journalist Tom Mutch witnessed the forging of an ‘iron generation’ of young Ukrainians.

With first-hand reporting from all the major battlegrounds and front lines, The Dogs of Mariupol recounts not only the war’s notorious encounters but also its untold stories, painstakingly documenting the immense human catastrophe wrought on Ukrainian society and the divisions between those who fought and those who fled.

After four years of conflict, Ukraine holds on, but a peace agreement remains elusive. Meanwhile, the death toll only rises. In this revised and expanded edition, Tom Mutch charts the struggles behind the headlines – both of ordinary Ukrainians and their wartime leaders – and positions the invasion within the changing face of warfare and the breakdown of the global order itself.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Tom Mutch is a New Zealand journalist who has been covering Ukraine since the start of the full-scale invasion as a correspondent for the New Zealand Herald. His articles also appear frequently in the Daily Beast, Popular Mechanics, Military Times and Byline Times. He has also written for The Times, the Daily Telegraph and The Independent and he is a regular guest on the Daily Telegraph’s podcast Ukraine: The Latest.

Tom’s reporting has been widely cited in international media, as well as on Ukraine’s official social channels and President Zelensky’s accounts. He likewise has been recognised by the Kremlin, which banned him from Russia for reporting human rights abuses (he snuck into Kursk with the Ukrainian Army anyway). Oksen Lisovyi, Ukraine’s Minister of Education and Science, said that Tom was ‘one of the bravest, best journalists I met in Ukraine’.

He read modern history at Christ Church, Oxford, and has a Master’s degree in politics and journalism from Columbia University.
