大国的崩溃：苏联解体的台前幕后

His detailed recounting makes me wonder if personal encounters or archival research played a big role. I'm curious about what motivated him to tell this story now.

The way the book captures the chaos and uncertainty makes it feel very contemporary. Did others find themselves imagining what it would have been like to be there?

The choices about whose perspectives to highlight seem crucial to the narrative. I wonder what led to the selection of certain voices over others.
