Publisher Note
The publication features photos taken in 1994-1995 in Luhansk, where for some time the photographer accompanied the ambulance crew and had an opportunity to document their daily work in full. It opens up with an essay by a documentary photographer who has worked in Ukraine for a long time, Donald Weber, entitled The Human is an Atom that Won’t be Split, in which he recounts a story of his acquaintance with Chekmenev's work and the feelings it evokes.
The first photos are in black and white, but very quickly the photographer realized that they do not do justice toblood, and there is a lot of blood in the pictures. Some photos are accompanied by short notes by the author, which tell simple stories - who hit whom with an ax, what is a drunk tank and how to bring to consciousness a person in a state of heavy alcohol intoxication.
