Invasion By Luke Harding AudioBook Summary
The first book of reportage from the front line of the Ukraine war. Invasion is a powerful, moving first draft of history written by the award-winning Guardian journalist and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Collusion and Shadow State.
For months, the omens had pointed in one scarcely believable direction: Russia was about to invade Ukraine. And yet, the world was stunned by the epochal scale of the assault that began in February 2022. It was an attempt by one nation to devour another.
Invasion is Luke Harding’s compelling chronicle of the war that changed everything. For this breath-taking work of reportage he spent months reporting on the ground during the build up to the conflict and afterward; his book tells of the initial days of shock and panic, the grim reality of this ongoing war, and the unheard human stories behind the headlines. Invasion also offers insightful portraits of the war’s two great personalities. One, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, is an actor-turned-president who rallied support on a global stage. The other, Vladimir Putin, is a dictator who dwells in a strange and unreachable realm. Harding examines the ideological, religious, and personal reasons behind Putin’s decision to invade. And he confronts a crucial question: which side will prevail in this terrible war?
Written in Luke Harding’s starkly transfixing style, this is an urgent, and powerful account of the largest armed conflict in Europe since 1945. The action spans battlegrounds on land, sea, and sky, from atrocities committed in Mariupol and Bucha, to the key military frontlines in Kherson and the Donbas. With the ripple effects of this conflict already being felt beyond Ukraine and Russia’s borders, it’s more vital than ever to understand how the situation on the frontline will have profound effects for us all. Having warned correctly about Putin’s dark and adventurist ambitions in his previous books Collusion and Shadow State, Harding’s analysis of the war’s consequences for Kyiv, Moscow and the world makes for essential listening.
