'A fresh, powerful portrait of Lenin' Anne Applebaum, author of Red
Famine 'Richly readable ... An enthralling but appalling story'
Francis Wheen, author of Karl Marx The cold, one-dimensional figure
of Lenin the political fanatic is only a partial truth. Drawing on
extensive material that has only recently become available,
Sebestyen's gripping biography casts an intriguing new light on the
character behind the politics. In reality, Lenin was a man who
loved nature as much as he loved making revolution, and his closest
relationships were with women. He built a state based on terror.
But he was a highly emotional man given to furious rages and deep
passions. While never ignoring the politics, Sebestyen examines
Lenin's inner life, his relationship with his wife and his long
love affair with Inessa Armand, the most romantic and beguiling of
Bolsheviks. These two women were as significant as the men - Stalin
or Trotsky - who created the world's first Communist state with
him.
