Description: FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE The Prisoner by Vladimir Pereverzin, Anna Gunin A shocking, but also wryly humorous and ultimately uplifting memoir of an ordinary man sentenced to lengthy and brutal imprisonment in Putins Russia when he refused to give false evidence against Yukos owner Mikhail Khodorkovsky. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Vladimir Pereverzins Kafkaesque story is vividly told in this skilful translation of his shocking, but also wryly humorous and ultimately uplifting memoir, published originally in Russian in 2013. It is the true story of how an ordinary mans life was torn apart by the Kremlin. One day, Vladimir was a senior manager in Yukos, an oil and gas company based in Moscow, enjoying the good life; the next, he was plunged into the nightmarish world of Russias notoriously brutal prisons and penal colonies, including some in which political prisoner Alexei Navalny was held. His crime was to have refused to give false evidence against Yukos owner Mikhail Khodorkovsky. For this, Pereverzin was sentenced to a lengthy and harsh incarceration. As Russia has adopted new laws to punish people for sharing information about its ongoing special operation in Ukraine, Vladimirs striking memoir has become more relevant than ever. Author Biography Vladimir Pereverzin was a Yukos manager imprisoned in Russia on fraudulent charges of having embezzled $13 billion when he refused to give false evidence against Yukos owner Mikhail Khodorkovsky. He did time in some of Russias most notorious prisons and labour camps. Vladimir now lives in Berlin and campaigns for human rights. Review A very Russian story, and topical for all times. Sadly including our own. Unless youre immune to miscarriages of justice, read this book. It tells you how to become truly free when deprived of liberty. And how terrible ordeals can make you a stronger and better person. -- Boris Akunin, author of the Erast Fandorin series Details ISBN1802472517 Author Anna Gunin Year 2024 Translator Anna Gunin ISBN-13 9781802472516 Format Paperback Imprint Ad Lib Publishers Ltd Subtitle Behind Bars in Putins Russia Country of Publication United Kingdom Audience General Publication Date 2024-03-28 UK Release Date 2024-03-28 Pages 320 DEWEY 365.45092 ISBN-10 1802472517 Publisher Gemini Books Group Ltd We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
