This is a unique, even unprecedented, book. Thirty-five prominent Russian political, cultural, and media figures, including Mikhail Gorbachev and the famous poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko, have written reminiscences and commentaries about the man who, more than any other American, was a first-hand observer of, and even participant in, the historic events that transformed the Soviet Union into today’s Russia. Features many photos of Cohen and Katrina vanden Heuvel.
