Beskrivelse
Patriot is the gripping memoir of Alexei Navalny, a fearless political leader and the main opposition to Vladimir Putin. This bestselling book reveals his life story, activism, and the sacrifices he made for freedom.
A powerful and moving account of one man’s fight against dictatorship and his unwavering belief in change.
Patriot, an instant Sunday Times bestseller and winner of The British Book Awards 2024 Book of the Year, tells the extraordinary life of Alexei Navalny. Written shortly after his near-fatal poisoning in 2020, the book covers his youth, his rise as an activist, his family life, and his relentless challenge to a superpower determined to silence him. Navalny’s story is brought to life with vivid, page-turning detail, including previously unseen letters from prison.
Throughout the memoir, Navalny shares his political journey, the numerous attempts on his life, and the stories of those closest to him. He also describes the tireless campaign he and his team led against an increasingly authoritarian regime. Filled with passion, wit, honesty, and courage, Patriot stands as Navalny’s final message to the world.
This heartfelt narrative recounts his last years spent in one of the harshest prisons on earth, emphasizing why individual freedom matters so deeply. It serves as a stirring call to continue the struggle for justice and liberty, a cause for which he gave everything.
As Yulia Navalnaya, his wife, beautifully puts it, “This book is a testament not only to Alexei's life, but to his unwavering commitment to the fight against dictatorship-a fight he gave everything for, including his life. Through its pages, readers will come to know the man I loved deeply-a man of profound integrity and unyielding courage. Sharing his story will not only honour his memory but also inspire others to stand up for what is right and to never lose sight of the values that truly matter.”
The Financial Times praised the book as “A worthy testament to Navalny's courage, defiance and humour.”
