Simon Shuster: The showman (Hardcover, 2024, William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers) 5 stars

Great book

5 stars

Great book. The author has excellent sources and access to Zelensky's inner circle. Opens doors to a deeper understanding of the decision making process of the current Ukrainian leadership and Zelensky's personal motivation. Shuster's news articles and even this book have sparked controversy in Ukraine, because they reveal truths that are not in line with the current public discourse. As often happens in Ukraine, he has therefore been accused of "spreading Russian narratives". In reality he is simply a very professional journalist. There is a good interview with him in Ukrainska Pravda. www.pravda.com.ua/articles/2024/02/1/7439797/
