Description

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.

International correspondent David M. Herszenhorn, weaves together the threads of Navalny''s remarkable life and work:

- The assassination attempt with a military-grade nerve agent by an FSB hit squad in Siberia, his recovery, and the vigilante-style investigation with news outlet Bellin
