Contents summary
In Patriot, Navalny details his life and career.[1][2]
Composition and publication
Navalny began writing Patriot in Germany after he was poisoned with the nerve agent Novichok in August 2020. He returned to Russia in February 2021, having written much of his memoir by that time, and he was arrested. Navalny was sentenced to 19 years in August 2023 on charges of extremism. In February 2024, he died at a penal colony in the Russian arctic. Patriot was announced by Alfred A. Knopf and Navalny's wife, Yulia Navalnaya, on April 11, 2024. Navalnaya edited and finalized the manuscript with Knopf. On X, Navalnaya announced that Patriot had been translated into eleven languages, including a Russian-language edition.[1]
Patriot was published on October 22, 2024 by Knopf in the United States[1] and by Penguin Books in the UK.[3]
