PARIS, Editions Tallandier (20 septembre 2007) - In-4, 23,5 x 1,8 x 17,5 cm - Broché - Couverture à rabats, illustrée - illustrations en texte - 223 pages - comme neuf -Envoi rapide et soigné 4 ème de couverture: Quels desseins, quels sentiments animaient les dirigeants de l'Union soviétique naissante - Staline, Trotski, Boukharine, Kamenev, Zinoviev, et tant d'autres ? Comment meublaient-ils les longues réunions consacrées à l'approvisionnement en charbon ukrainien, à la réforme des manuels scolaires, aux accidents de chemin de fer ? Plus d'un nomenklaturiste trompa son ennui le crayon ou le stylo à la main, griffonnant portraits et caricatures sur des pages de bloc-notes, des papiers à en-tête, dans les marges des documents. Les dessins circulaient de main en main, parfois jusqu'à Staline, qui ne manquait pas alors d'ajouter un commentaire. Ces 181 dessins inédits nous font pénétrer dans le cercle restreint des maîtres du Kremlin, derrière les portes du Politburo, l'instance suprême de l'URSS, où aucun photographe n'entra jamais. Telle remarque impitoyable d'un Staline, tel portrait de Trotski en Juif errant, telle charge contre la bonhomie de Kalinine ou le pédantisme de Boukharine rendent compte, mieux qu'aucun document officiel, de la mentalité, des préoccupations, des alliances et des rivalités des dirigeants soviétiques. Cette plongée dans le monde de la nomenklatura constitue une histoire «vue d'en haut» de l'URSS stalinienne, des luttes intestines des années vingt aux purges de la fin des années trente. Les charges, d'irrespectueuses, se font de plus en plus violentes. L'humour devient grinçant, et quand débutent les grands procès de Moscou et que tombent les têtes, le rire reste en travers de la gorge.

8vo, hardcover in dj, 451pp. “In Vladimir Alexandrov’s To Break Russia's Chains we are offered a poignant idea of what ‘might have been’ in the last century of history if Savinkov’s struggle for a democratic Russia had succeeded….Alexandrov presents Savinkov in all his complexity, particularly the blind spots which sank so many of his efforts.” - Washington Independent Review of Books “To Break Russia’s Chains is well-written, often gripping. Spies, double deals, subterfuge, plots, arrests, escapes, and revolutionary acts abound across its 500 pages. Alexandrov offers the best conclusion for understanding Savinkov’s remarkable life and ultimate fate: ‘as is often the case, what happened was the exact opposite of what he expected.’” - Origins "This excellent study expertly chronicles the complexities of the Russian Revolution and the Civil War through the extraordinary life of Boris Savinkov...The breadth of Alexandrov’s research is highly impressive as is his large cast of characters, whom he handles very deftly. This very welcome biography now brings Savinkov’s adventures to a whole new audience." - History of War "This compelling study distils a great deal of research into a fast-paced narrative [that] reads like a political thriller...it is a story Alexandrov tells with aplomb.” - Times Literary Supplement “A thorough and detailed study. One of the more remarkable lives in an era of remarkable lives. Alexandrov wonders just what might have been had Savinkov’s last plot not been thwarted…a question worth asking.” - The Los Angeles Review of Books "[An] engaging and thoroughly readable new biography... important and fascinating." - The Critic "Alexandrov’s biography is well worth reading for its depiction of the real feel of the historical situation and for the complexity of a historical character like Savinkov, whose life spanned a whole chapter of Russian history." - The American Conservative "A controversial figure in Russian history earns an impassioned, long-overdue treatment. This thoroughgoing biography builds [Savinkov’s] story with meticulous, novelistic detail...Throughout this fascinating historical biography, Alexandrov demonstrates his facility with the Soviet archives, delivering a scholarly yet accessible work perfect for library collections. A painstaking work of archival research that unearths little-known details of early Soviet history." - Kirkus, Starred Review "Marshalling a large cast of characters and a mountain of research into a fluid narrative, Alexandrov clarifies the complex dynamics of the Russian Revolution. This trenchant biography gives its fascinating subject his due." - Publishers Weekly "The importance of Boris Savinkov and his controversial role in the Russian Revolution and Civil War have been overlooked recently, but this excellent and well-written biography by Professor Alexandrov should do much to reawaken interest in his extraordinary life." -- Antony Beevor - author of STALINGRAD “Boris Savinkov was one of the most colourful, notorious and enigmatic figures in revolutionary Russia – a flamboyant hero to some, an untrustworthy villain to others. Extraordinarily influential in his lifetime – and still a legendary figure in Russia – this complex individual has been all-but forgotten in the West. Vladimir Alexandrov’s superb biography provides a page-turning account of Savinkov’s roller-coaster life, as well as throwing valuable new light on the history of the Russian state.” -- Giles Milton, best-selling author of Churchill's Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare and D-Day "The extraordinary life of Boris Savinkov—revolutionary assassin, self-described terrorist, and novelist—is one of those historical enigmas peculiar to the tragedy of modern Russia. But in the hands of this masterful biographer, Savinkov is resurrected. Vladimir Alexandrov expertly mines the archives to write a spy story filled with intrigue, passion and improbable adventures—and along the way we learn a great deal of history. A formidable achievement." -- Kai Bird is a Pulitzer Prize winning historian, the Director of the Leon Levy Center for Biography and the author most recently of The Outlier: The Unfinished Presidency of Jimmy Carter. Praise for The Black Russian—One of San Francisco Chronicle's Top Ten Nonfiction Books of 2013 "Magnetizing and unforgettable . . . In his assiduously researched, prodigiously descriptive, fluently analytical, and altogether astonishing work of resurrection, Alexandrov provides uniquely focused accounts of racial struggles in America and decadence and bloodshed in Europe and Russia while insightfully and dynamically portraying a singular man." - Booklist (starred review) "[A] gracefully written feat of historical sleuthing. . . . Through prodigious archival research, historical scholarship and painstaking reconstruction of secondhand accounts, [Alexandrov] has drawn a moving and vivid portrait of a remarkable American life." - The San Francisco Chronicle "With so much focus on the black experience in America in the 19th century, we might never consider the black experience in Europe at the same time. Vladimir Alexandrov's The Black Russian rectifies this oversight, and does so with panache. His tale is the biography of an individual who is wholly remarkable, regardless of race, and whose vitality, guile, and charm led him from Mississippi to Moscow, with plenty of adventures along the way. . . . Alexandrov transports the reader to an exotic era. Some of the most memorable parts of Thomas's life story lie in the incidental grace notes that add color to the lands through which he traveled." - The Daily Beast "Although Alexandrov constructed this vessel with sturdy timbers of historical research, it sails lightly on a swift narrative current that transports us from Reconstruction Mississippi to Memphis, New York City, London, Paris, Moscow and, finally, Constantinople. . . . Alexandrov excels at recreating the various worlds Thomas inhabited from his restricted existence during Reconstruction to his glittering fast-lane life on the Continent. . . . What [Thomas’s] life illustrates, as Alexandrov skillfully and gracefully shows, is that when people are unshackled from slaveries—of whatever sort—freedom's buoyancy can lift them to surprising heights, can offer miraculous views." - Cleveland Plain Dealer L'autore Vladimir Alexandrov& ;received a Ph.D. in comparative literature from Princeton. He taught Russian literature and culture at Harvard before moving to Yale, where he is B.E. Bensinger Professor of Slavic Languages and Literatures. He is the author of&The Black Russian&;as well as books on Bely, Nabokov, and Tolstoy, and lives in New Haven, Connecticut.
