Based on an unprecedented series of interviews with Vladimir Putin's inner circle, this book presents a radically different view of power and politics in Russia. The image of Putin as a strongman is dissolved. In its place is a weary figurehead buffeted -- if not controlled -- by the men who at once advise and deceive him. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The regional governors and bureaucratic leaders are immovable objects, far more powerful in their fiefdoms than the president himself. So are the gatekeepers-those officials who guard the pathways to power-on whom Putin depends as much as they rely on him. The tenuous edifice is filled with all of the intrigue and plotting of a Medici court, as enemies of the state are invented and wars begun to justify personal gains, internal rivalries, or one faction's biased advantage. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A bestseller in Russia, \u003ci\u003eAll the Kremlin's Men\u003c\/i\u003e is a shocking revisionist portrait of the Putin era and a dazzling reconstruction of the machinations of courtiers running riot.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMikhail Zygar\u003c\/b\u003e is the former editor in chief of the only independent TV station in Russia, TV Rain (Dozhd).
