About the book: 1991 / Vladimir Solovyov and Elena Klepikova live in New York, are constantly published in leading American newspapers and magazines (“New York Times, Daily News, Washington Post, etc.) Emigrated from the USSR in 1977. Two books they wrote were published in the West: “Yuri Andropov” - in 1983 and “Struggle in the Kremlin” - in 1986, which were then reprinted several times and translated into many languages. The object of the author's research is perhaps the most mysterious place on the planet. Nevertheless, some “information leakage” does occur from there. The facts cited by the authors are either gleaned from several independent sources or restored analytically, and that is why they will help the reader reconstruct the chronicle of the development of events both in the Kremlin itself and far beyond it outside.
