NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Russians, a "lively and provocative"* analysis of the Soviet Union in its twilight years.
*The New York Times Book Review
Even from afar, the transformation in the Soviet Union held a special fascination for all of us, and not only because it affected our destiny, our survival, even the changing nature of our own society. What happened there riveted our interest for a deeper reason: It was a modern enactment of one of the archetypal stories of human existence, that of the struggle from darkness to light, from poverty toward prosperity, from dictatorship toward democracy. It represented an affirmation of the relentless human struggle to break free from the bonds of hierarchy and dogma, to strive for a better life, for stronger, richer values. It was an affirmation of the human capacity for change, growth, renewal.
The New Russians is about how that story of change began and what this change meant for the Russian people-and for the rest of the world.
