Alexei Anatolyevich Navalny (4 June 1976 - 16 February 2024) was a Russian opposition leader, anti-corruption activist and political prisoner. He was recognized by Amnesty International as a prisoner of conscience and was awarded the Sakharov Prize for his work on human rights. Navalny and his team published material about corruption in Russia and organized political demonstrations. In a 2011 interview, he described Russia's ruling party, United Russia, as a 'party of crooks and thieves', which became a popular byname. Navalny and the FBK have published investigations detailing alleged corruption by high-ranking Russian officials and their associates. Navalny twice received a suspended sentence for embezzlement, in 2013 and 2014. Both criminal cases have been widely considered politically motivated. He was barred from running in the 2018 presidential election. In August 2020, Navalny was hospitalized after being poisoned with a nerve agent. He was medically evacuated to Berlin and discharged later. He accused President Putin of being responsible, and an investigation implicated agents from the Federal Security Service. In January 2021, Navalny returned to Russia and was detained. Navalny's suspended sentence was replaced with a sentence of over 2+1 2 years' detention. In March 2022, Navalny was sentenced to an additional nine years in prison after being found guilty of embezzlement and contempt of court. In 2024, the Russian prison service reported that Navalny had died. Patriot is Alexei Navalny's posthumously published memoir, completed from his writings, interviews, courtroom speeches, and letters from prison. It traces his evolution from a young lawyer and blogger exposing corruption to Russia's most prominent opposition leader and ultimately a political prisoner who refused to be silenced. The book is both a personal story and a political document. It is a New York Times bestseller, a National Book Critics Circle Award Winner, and named a best book of the year by The New Yorker, The Atlantic, and NPR. In Patriot, Navalny details his life and career. The first portion of the book is in narrative form about his life and career, while the second portion is in the form of a prison memoir, some of it describing the boredom, isolation, and suffering living in such a prison, but also including reflections on a variety of topics, "from 19th century French literature to Billie Eilish". It also demonstrates his long fight against giving in to despair despite the authorities' punishments, and gives advice on how not to lose hope. The book also includes a manifesto for transforming Russia, which include "free elections, a constitutional assembly, decentralisation, and a European orientation". The last entry in the memoir was made on January 17, 2024, a few weeks before his death. This is a powerful and moving memoir of a fearless political opposition leader who paid the ultimate price for his beliefs. 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 t.…
