La nueva Rusia

Hired assassins with the soul of an artist, would-be theater directors turned Kremlin puppeteers, suicidal supermodels, Hell's Angels fanciing themselves holy warriors, and revolutionary oligarchs: welcome to the dazzling, surreal heart of 21st-century Russia. In The New Russia, Peter Pomerantsev immerses himself in a country that from the West is shocking: a world from which new money and new power flow, and which changes so fast that it breaks all sense of reality, harbors a form of subtle dictatorship and challenge the countries around him as his strength grows.
