The Torture Camp on Paradise Street by Stanislav Aseyev
In The Torture Camp on Paradise Street, Ukrainian journalist and writer Stanislav Aseyev details his experience as a prisoner at a modern-day concentration camp overseen by the Federal Security Bureau of the Russian Federation (FSB) in the Russian-controlled city of Donetsk. Aseyev's memoir recounts a litany of abuses, including torture and rape, against himself and fellow inmates over the course of nearly three years of illegal incarceration, which was largely carried out in the prison called Izoliatsiia.



Rendered deftly into English, this compelling account not only offers critical insight into the operations of Russian forces in occupied territories of Ukraine but also meditates on how and why a human can survive such atrocities and reenter the world to share his story.
