Summary:
"Moscow-based journalists Andrei Soldatov and Irina Borogan look at the complex, ever-shifting role of Russian
emigrés
since the 1917 October Revolution to the present day. From secret
agents
to doomed dissidents, the story of Russian
emigrés
is an invaluable angle through which to understand
Russia
in the modern world."--From publisher.
