This complete biography of V. I. Lenin (1870–1924) is a revision of Lenin's texts, actions, partnerships, conflicts—and, not least, "Leninist places." The author methodically follows the outcast philosopher who managed to change the world and rise to the top of the social hierarchy: from Shushenskoye to Capri, from "What Is to Be Done?" to "State and Revolution," from the underground to the Kremlin. The reader, having learned how the man who only a hundred years ago seemed "more alive than all the living" and who, in contemporary counterrevolutionary Russia, has become more dead than all the dead, managed his life, will see that "Lenin" is more than the sum of historical events: a space, instrument, and environment for dissent; an inexhaustible source of images, precedents, alternatives, utopian ideas, and pragmatic practices; a code for deciphering today's reality—and a safeguard against getting bogged down in a vicious infinity.
