"The most intelligent book written about Russia by a foreigner," Herzen wrote in 1843. By a paradox that goes very far, posterity has ended up confirming the judgment of the great ancestor in exile of all today's Russian dissenters.
A bestseller that fell into oblivion and was rediscovered in the U.S.S.R. through underground publishing and in the West during the Cold War, Russia in 1839 has, if one wants to understand today's Russia, the same importance as Tocqueville's Democracy in America has for the United States.
