Vladimir Zhirinovsky by Vladimir Solov'ev

Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the ultra-nationalist Russian politician, shocked the world by winning 24 per cent of the popular vote in Russia's 1993 election. Now, as the appointed dictator of the Liberal Democratic Party, he is pursuing the 1996 presidency with a vengeance. For the western media Zhirinovsky poses as a caricature of Russian chauvinism, hence his portrayal as a buffoon, but since his youth he has cultivated and guarded a Faustian connection to the KGB. In his determination to make Russia "great again", he intends to rule with an iron fist. This book explores the life of Zhirinovsky and examines his rise to absolute power.
