Free Download The Dissident: Alexey Navalny: Profile of a Political Prisoner (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0C1TF6686 | 2023 | 11 hours and 1 minute | M4B@64 kbps | 318 MB
Author: David Herszenhorn
Narrator: David de Vries
A news-driven biography of Vladimir Putin’s nemesis Alexey Navalny-lawyer, blogger, anti-corruption crusader, protest organizer, political opposition leader, mayoral and presidential candidate, campaign strategist, provocateur, poisoning victim, dissident, and now, prisoner of conscience and anti-war crusader. THE DISSIDENT is the story of how one fearless man, offended by the dishonesty and criminality of the Russian political system, mounted a relentless opposition movement and became President Vladimir Putin’s most formidable rival-so despised that the Russian leader makes a point of never uttering Navalny’s name. There’s an old saying that Russia without corruption isn’t Russia. Alexey Navalny refuses to accept this proposition. His stubborn insistence that Russians can defy the stereotype and create an entirely different country made him such a threat to Putin that the Kremlin wanted him exiled-or dead-and now seems intent on keeping him locked in a prison colony for decades.
