Author Diane Chandler interviewed by The Derby Telegraph about her new novel The Road To Donetsk. Diane worked at the European Commission in Brussels for several years, where she managed overseas aid programmes in Ukraine just after the fall of communism. Ukraine soon worked its way into her heart, and she travelled there extensively, not only to the stunning capital city of Kiev, but down to the coal fields of Donetsk, where the current troubles rage, over to the sparkling seas of Odessa, and even up to the chilling spectacle of Chernobyl.
