Rasputin

More about the book

Holy man or monster of depravity? How did a gentle child with amazing powers of healing and visions of the future become the notorious and feared Rasputin - a man whose name is synonymous with evil and the macabre, a mystic who believed in group sex, who loved dancing, drinking and any excess, and who was finally assassinated in a brutal frenzy of debauchery? Here, for the first time, Rasputin's extraordinary story is told by his own daughter, who witnessed the bizarre and often terrifying events of his life at first hand. The result is a searing historical document and a vivid portrait of the man behind the myth.
