Notes
Tells of the initial days of shock and panic, the grim reality of this ongoing war, and the unheard human stories behind the headlines. Invasion also offers insightful portraits of the war's two great personalities. One, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, an actor-turned-president who rallied support on a global stage. The other, Vladimir Putin, a dictator who dwells in a strange and unreachable realm. Harding examines the ideological, religious, and personal reasons behind Putin's decision to invade. And he confronts a crucial question: which side will prevail in this terrible war?
