À propos de cet audio
"In a deep, resonant voice, Jonathan Keeble gives a splendid narration of this long and well-researched biography of Vladimir Putin."- AudioFile Magazine
This program is read by award-winning actor Jonathan Keeble.
The first comprehensive, fully up-to-date biography of Vladimir Putin, woven into the tumultuous saga of Russia over the last sixty years
Vladimir Putin is the world’s most dangerous man. Alone among world leaders, he has the power to reduce the United States and Europe to ashes in a nuclear firestorm and has threatened to do so. He invades his neighbors, most recently Ukraine, meddles in western elections, and orders assassinations inside and outside Russia. His regime is autocratic and deeply corrupt. But that is only half the story.
Unflinching, hard-hitting, and objective, Philip Short’s biography gives us the whole tale, up to the present day. To the fullest extent anyone has yet been able, Short cracks open the strongman’s thick carapace to reveal the man underneath those bare-chested horseback rides. In this deeply researched account, listeners meet the Putin who slept in the same room as his parents until he was twenty-five years old, who backed out of his wedding right beforehand, and who learned English in order to be able to talk to George W. Bush.
Vladimir Putin is wreaking havoc in Europe, threatening global peace and stability and exposing his fellow citizens to devastating economic countermeasures. Yet puzzlingly many Russians continue to support him. This audiobook is essential listening for anyone who wants to understand the many facets of the man behind the mask that Putin wears on the world stage.
Putin will be the last word for years to come.
A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt and Company.

Captivating
This is a gripping book, 29 hours never felt so short. I couldn't stop listening. Jonathan Keeble's narration was wonderfully smooth. Short has done a terrific job of trying to be fair to Putin. It was refreshing, many would not have been so kind in light of current events. This is everything you wanted to know about Putin. Philip Short paints the picture of Putin not a larger than life figure, but as a human being, susceptible to the forces of history and power just like everyone else. I believe these are the forces that have shaped him into who he is today. The only catch, the final chapters are still unfolding.
