Sold it to me bud.To understand Putin, and why a lot of Russians like him, you should read Godfather of the Kremlin written by an Russian-American, who wrote for Forbes magazine. Brilliant book about the Oligarchs (including Abramovich who doesn't come out well at all) and how the country was just plundered after the Soviet Union tanked, and the rampant corruption, poverty and greed that was Russia in the 90s. The author of the book ended up being assassinated. If you want a good, objective insight into modern day Russia, I highly recommend it.
