Murder in the Gulag : the life and death of Alexei Navalny
Sweeney, John, 1958-2024
Book
Beginning with the mystery of Alexei Navalny's murder in the Arctic Wolf penal colony in a remote part of Siberia, the book tells the life story of the Russian opposition leader who was a perpetual thorn in the side of Vladimir Putin. It is a warts-and-all biography of Navalny, a highly charismatic but controversial figure who flirted with far-right Russian nationalists at one point, told by a larger-than-life journalist, based in London and Kyiv, who met Navalny three times.
