Learn more about the eBook
As president of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin is described as a particularly unpredictable character who repeatedly produces surprises and keeps the world in constant fear.
Nonetheless, Russia is no longer the ”Land of Red Dusk” of the Soviet period, as the country has opened its borders to visitors and a great deal of information is accessible even for the average citizen. Winston Churchill once called the Soviet Union a “riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma”. Today that mystery is Vladimir Putin, as we know little about him as a person – as one might expect from a former intelligence officer.
In this book, the awarded Finnish author and documentarist Arvo Tuominen intends to not only study the enigmatic President of Russia but also describe Putin’s personal class journey. How did the only surviving son of a poor family living in Leningrad make his way into the gilded halls of the Kremlin?
