His 2020 poisoning by the Russian security services was a global news event. In 2024 he died in a brutal Siberian prison. He began writing Patriot whilst recovering from his poisoning; it ends with his prison diaries, seen here for the first time.We witness the growth of his nationwide support. We see his many arrests and harassment and, in stunning detail, the attempt on his life. We understand why he felt he had to return to Russia. In prison, he shows a spirit and a sense of humour that cannot be crushed.Patriot is as dramatic as its author's life - passionate that good and freedom will prevail. It is Alexei Navalny's final letter to the world, a rousing call to continue his work, an unforgettably positive account of a life that will inspire every reader.'A worthy testament to Navalny's courage, defiance and humour' Financial Times'This book is a gospel' Vanity Fair'Inspiring, emboldening - a voice that will not be forgotten' New Yorker**A WATERSTONES BEST BOOK OF 2024**Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 240mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 35mmItem Weight: 500gGenre: BiographyTranslator: Arch Tait, Stephen DalzielContributor: Arch Tait (Translated by), Stephen Dalziel (Translated by)Topic: Law & PoliticsRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
