{"product_id":"trotsky-a-biography","title":"Trotsky: A Biography","description":"Revolutionary practitioner, theorist, factional chief, sparkling writer, 'ladies' man' (e.g., his affair with Frieda Kahlo), icon of the Revolution, anti-Jewish Jew, philosopher of everyday life, grand seigneur of his household, father and hunted victim, Trotsky lived a brilliant life in extraordinary times. Robert Service draws on hitherto unexamined archives and on his profound understanding of Russian history to draw a portrait of the man and his legacy, revealing that though his followers have represented Trotsky as a pure revolutionary soul and a powerful intellect unjustly hounded into exile by Stalin and his henchmen. The reality is very different, as this masterful and compelling biography reveals.","brand":"Pan Macmillan","offers":[{"title":"New - Paperback","offer_id":32686288699477,"sku":"9780330439695N","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/products\/9780330439695.jpg?v=1598880782","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/trotsky-a-biography","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
