Just watched the first episode of Chernobyl. What a depressing show
-
There was a book I read on that tragedy(Ukrainian journalist, I believe?), a number of yrs ago. This woman was awarded the Nobel a couple yrs back..don't know if that was politically-motivated?
Anyways, the eyewitness-accounts in that text were horrible. It was certainly heroic what a number of soldiers/pilots/other volunteers did, in order to get some level of containment.

Just looked it up, was Svetlana Alexievich, a Belarusian writer who was awarded the 2015 Nobel in Literature.
"Voices From Chernobyl" is the title. I'd randomly grabbed it at the city library in Osaka, about a decade ago. Then perhaps two yrs after reading this warning, the Massive quake occurred near Tohoku, Japan, leading to Fukushima.
A pretty harrowing account, not for the faint-of-heart.
