About this product

Product Information

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize One of the Best Books of the Year: The New York Times From the editor of The New Yorker : a riveting account of the collapse of the Soviet Union, which has become the standard book on the subject. Lenin's Tomb combines the global vision of the best historical scholarship with the immediacy of eyewitness journalism. Remnick takes us through the tumultuous 75-year period of Communist rule leading up to the collapse and gives us the voices of those who lived through it, from democratic activists to Party members, from anti-Semites to Holocaust survivors, from Gorbachev to Yeltsin to Sakharov. An extraordinary history of an empire undone, Lenin's Tomb stands as essential reading for our times.

  • Open you eyes to how great we have it here by comparison to the USSR.

    You'll see why this book won the Pultizer Prize when you read it. A Jewish writer living in Russia for a period of time talking about the absolute horrors of the Stalin regime, and the breakdown and democritization starting with Kruschev, then Gorbachev. Why we never heard much of these atrocities which were probably as terrible as Nazi atrocities is puzzling. "You can fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time" even though some people actually cried and morned the death of Stalin the Mass Murderer. This book leads into a 2nd book after the fall of USSR. Should be also great reading. By the way , he also wrote a fabulous book on Ali the fighter that captured the essence of Ali's skill and time of trials. It's ...
