"Views of Lenin" are currently set in a tone of highly judgemental
opinion: he was inflexible, doctrinaire and a cold-blooded
revolutionary. A man whose indifference to culture led to political
extremes, paving the way for his successor Stalin's totalitarianism
and some of the most heinous and gruesome ideological crimes
committed during the 20th century. Enshrined as an icon of Soviet
ideology and power, the statues of Lenin that were once a common
sight across Eastern Europe and Russia have been toppled and his
reputation crumbled into the dust of historical memory. This short
"Life & Times" biography of Lenin sets out to examine his
legacy in the light of the complete and total collapse of the
ideology he espoused. Sheehan seeks to separate the myth from the
fact, and let the real Lenin emerge from behind the opposing
shrouds of deification and condemnation, revealing the creator of
the 20th century's most influential yet bloodthirsty beliefs.
