This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

The powerful and moving memoir of a fearless political opposition leader who paid the ultimate price for his beliefs.

'A brave and brilliant book' Guardian
'Charisma and courage dazzle on every page' Sunday Times
'Patriot will be seen as a historic text' Economist

Patriot is the exhilarating life story of one of the most fearless and inspiring figures of our time, who became a beacon to millions and the sole political threat to Vladimir Putin.

This is Alexei Navalny's life in his own words- his Soviet childhood, political awakening, his marriage and beloved family, his total commitment to taking on a corrupt regime and his enduring love of Russia and its people. His 2020 poisoning by the Russian security services was a global news event. In 2024 he died in a brutal Siberian prison. He began writing Patriot whilst recovering from his poisoning; it ends with his prison diaries, seen here for the first time.

We witness the growth of his nationwide support. We see his many arrests and harassment and, in stunning detail, the attempt on his life. We understand why he felt he had to return to Russia. In prison, he shows a spirit and a sense of humour that cannot be crushed.

Patriot is as dramatic as its author's life - passionate that good and freedom will prevail. It is Alexei Navalny's final letter to the world, a rousing call to continue his work, an unforgettably positive account of a life that will inspire every reader.

'A worthy testament to Navalny's courage, defiance and humour' Financial Times
'This book is a gospel' Vanity Fair
'Inspiring, emboldening - a voice that will not be forgotten' New Yorker
