" Patriot is by turns funny, fiery, reflective and tragic, laced with Navalny's trademark wry humor and idealism....a gutting personal account from a husband and father facing the reality that he will never be with his family again." --Alexandra Alter, The New York Times "Extraordinary... This is a brave and brilliant book, a luminous account of Navalny's life and dark times. It is a challenge from beyond the grave to Russia's murder-addicted rulers.... sharp, playful and lacking in self-pity. Nothing crushes him." --Luke Harding, The Guardian " Patriot ...will be seen as a historic text....Much like Fyodor Dostoevsky's "Notes from a Dead House" (1862)... and Martin Luther King's "Letter from Birmingham Jail" (1963), Patriot transcends its place and time. Its value lies not in what it tells you about the cruelties of Mr. Putin's regime, but in what it reveals about the human spirit....[ Patriot ] is a passionate account of Russia's extreme violence and a moving reflection on endurance and accepting death.... In a dictatorship, Navalny's only weapon was his life." -- The Economist "A chance to commune with the mind of a dissident....[with] slicing clarity.... Navalny himself [had]...such reserves of fortitude...such a sense of self...such an ability to laugh but also believe." --Gal Beckerman, The Atlantic "[ Patriot ] records the Russian dissident's brave career and dark final days... Gripping... compelling, impressive... his enthusiasm is so infectious... a remarkable achievement.... [with] deep pathos." --Con Coughlin, The Telegraph "Honest, full of penetrating wit... as cheerful and empathetic as Putin is malevolent and threatening. [Navanly] wielded cheerfulness as a weapon and never lost faith that the right side must eventually prevail." --Will Englund, The Washington Post "Poignant... genuine.... Patriot reveals...[Navalny's] fundamental decency, his wry sense of humor and his (mostly) cheery stoicism under conditions that would flatten a lesser person." --David Kortava, The New York Times "Like a beautifully crafted novel....Uplifting.... Terrifying.... [Navalny's prison diaries are] horrifying, but impossible to stop reading.... He remained unfailingly radiant." --Mikhail Zygar, Vanity Fair "A testament to resilience... Alexei Navalny never loses faith.... He tracks the boredom, isolation, exhaustion, suffering and absurdity of prison life, while working in asides about everything from 19th century French literature to Billie Eilish. But Patriot also reads as a testament to a famed dissident's extraordinary battle against despair as the Russian authorities gradually increase their crackdown against him, and even shares advice on how to confront the worst and still not lose hope." --Hillel Italie and Dasha Litvinova, Associated Press "I read every word of the book. I could not put it down.... incredibly moving." --Rachel Maddow, in an interview with Yulia Navalnaya, " Patriot is by turns funny, fiery, reflective and tragic, laced with Navalny's trademark wry humor and idealism....a gutting personal account from a husband and father facing the reality that he will never be with his family again." --Alexandra Alter, The New York Times "Extraordinary...

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * A NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER * BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: THE NEW YORKER , THE ATLANTIC , NPR * The powerful and moving memoir of a fearless political opposition leader who paid the ultimate price for his beliefs. " Patriot is by turns funny, fiery, reflective and tragic, laced with Navalny's trademark wry humor and idealism....a gutting personal account from a husband and father facing the reality that he will never be with his family again."-- The New York Times "Honest"-- The Washington Post * " Shocking"-- The Atlantic * " Uplifting." -- Vanity Fair " A testament to resilience " -- Associated Press * "Will be seen as a historic text."-- The Economist Alexei Navalny began writing Patriot shortly after his near-fatal poisoning in 2020. It is the full story of his life: his youth, his call to activism, his marriage and family, his commitment to challenging a world super-power determined to silence him, and his total conviction that change cannot be resisted--and will come. In vivid, page-turning detail, including never-before-seen correspondence from prison, Navalny recounts, among other things, his political career, the many attempts on his life, and the lives of the people closest to him, and the relentless campaign he and his team waged against an increasingly dictatorial regime. Written with the passion, wit, candor, and bravery for which he was justly acclaimed, Patriot is Navalny's final letter to the world: a moving account of his last years spent in the most brutal prison on earth; a reminder of why the principles of individual freedom matter so deeply; and a rousing call to continue the work for which he sacrificed his life. "This book is a testament not only to Alexei's life, but to his unwavering commitment to the fight against dictatorship--a fight he gave everything for, including his life. Through its pages, readers will come to know the man I loved deeply--a man of profound integrity and unyielding courage. Sharing his story will not only honor his memory but also inspire others to stand up for what is right and to never lose sight of the values that truly matter." --Yulia Navalnaya, NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER - BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: THE NEW YORKER , THE ATLANTIC , NPR - The powerful and moving memoir of a fearless political opposition leader who paid the ultimate price for his beliefs.
