What caused the Russian Revolution?
Did it succeed or fail?
Do we still live with its consequences?
Orlando Figes teaches history at Birkbeck, University of London and is the author of many acclaimed books on Russian history, including A People’s Tragedy, which The Times Literary Supplement named as one of the ‘100 most influential books since the war’, Natasha’s Dance, The Whisperers, Crimea and Just Send Me Word. The Financial Times called him ‘the greatest storyteller of modern Russian historians.’

The problem of Russia dominated the 20th century. Well before the 1917 revolutions Russia obsessed its imperial rivals and Russians themselves argued violently both about how Russia should be run and about its role in the world. Other, terrible regimes came and went, but from the 19th century to the final collapse of the USSR in 1991, it was Russia’s that drew everything into its orbit. In his book Orlando Figes describes and takes apart this story, in the shortest space possible.
