Chechnya

Narrative Prize and Pushcart winner Anthony Marra presented his work at Narrative Night 2010 in San Francisco. He read his story “Chechnya,” which involves a young woman doctor asked to take in a war orphan when she can barely take care of herself, her patients, and her sister, who has recently escaped from sexual slavery. The piece is Marra’s first published story, and here he makes his debut public appearance.
