Putin's bestselling biographer reveals how, in the space of a generation, Russia surrendered to a more virulent and invincible new strain of autocracy. Masha Gessen follows the lives of four people born at what promised to be the dawn of democracy. Each came of age with unprecedented expectations. Gessen charts their paths not only against the machinations of the regime that would crush them all, but also against the war it waged on understanding itself, ensuring the unobstructed reemergence.
