Stalin: The Court of the Red Tsar
of Simon Sebag Montefiore (Goodreads Author)
Series: Joseph Stalin #2
Description
Alternate cover edition of ISBN 9781400076789This widely acclaimed biography provides a vivid and riveting account of Stalin and his courtiersâkillers, fanatics, women, and childrenâduring the terrifying decades of his supreme power. In a seamless meshing of exhaustive research and narrative, Simon Sebag Montefiore gives us the everyday details of a monstrous life. We see Stalin playing his deadly game of power and paranoia at debauched dinners at Black Sea villas and in the apartments of the Kremlin. We witness first-hand how the dictator and his magnates carried out the Great Terror and the war against the Nazis, and how their families lived in this secret world of fear, betrayal, murder, and sexual degeneracy. Montefiore gives an unprecedented understanding of Stalinâs dictatorship, and a Stalin as human and complicated as he is brutal.
