Emmanuel Carrere - Limonov

“Limonov was a rogue; a bum; a multimillionaire's valet; a fashionable writer in Paris; a lost soldier in the Balkan wars; and now, in the chaotic ruins of postcommunist Russia, the charismatic leader of a party of young desperados. He sees himself as a hero; you might call him a scumbag…” Bio on the self described “Johnny Rotten of Soviet dissident literature”. Wild story.
