Description
Conversations with Stalin by Milovan Djilas offers a unique and chilling portrayal of the Soviet leader, drawing on three meetings held with Stalin during and after World War II. Djilas provides a vivid and unnerving account of the dictator's personality, revealing a complex figure both cunning and cruel, yet also enormously talented. This book provides a gripping insight into the inner workings of Stalin's court, shedding light on the key figures who surrounded him, including Beria, Malenkov, Zhukov, Molotov and Khrushchev.
