Visually the exterior appearance is exceptional,and even internally,the book is also in an exceptional condition/state of preservation and presentation for a book of its age. It is only the exterior faults that prevents a slightly higher grading. Despite them,it really is still an exceptional,exemplary copy for its cleanliness and brightness. Natan Sharansky is a Soviet dissident and later Israeli politician,human rights activist and author who spent nine years in Soviet prisons as a refusenik during the 1970s and 1980s. 'Fear No Evil' is the truly remarkable story of his nine years as a KGB prisoner,told with irresistable warmth,intelligence and humour by Sharansky himself,a man of exceptional courage. The story is grimSharansky is not.His book is filled with humour and wit and superb portraits of his guards and fellow inmates.This is a testimonial to the evils of a police state,but also to the indomitable and joyful spirit of a single person.The title,'Fear No Evil''comes from Sharansky's favourite psalm,the 23rd,which he recited from a prayer book he had during much of his term of imprisonment. 'Fear No Evil' is a tale of bravery,a love story,a struggle against tyranny.Its message is for everyone.
