El Hombre Sin Rostro: El Sorprendente Ascenso de Vladímir Putin / The Man Withou T a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin

Bag om El Hombre Sin Rostro: El Sorprendente Ascenso de Vladímir Putin / The Man Withou T a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin

National Book Award winner Masha Gessen's biography of a ruthless man's ascent to near-absolute power. The Man Without a Face is the chilling account of how a low-level, small-minded KGB operative ascended to the Russian presidency and, in an astonishingly short time, destroyed years of progress and made his country once more a threat to his own people and to the world. Handpicked as a successor by the "family" surrounding an ailing and increasingly unpopular Boris Yeltsin, Vladimir Putin seemed like a perfect choice for the oligarchy to shape according to its own designs. Suddenly the boy who had stood in the shadows, dreaming of ruling the world, was a public figure, and his popularity soared. Russia and an infatuated West were determined to see the progressive leader of their dreams, even as he seized control of media, sent political rivals and critics into exile or to the grave, and smashed the country's fragile electoral system, concentrating power in the hands of his cronies.
