Memoir excerpts reveal Navalny believed death awaited him in prison
Excerpts from Alexei Navalny's memoir Patriot reveal his belief he would die in a Russian prison. The New Yorker released passages ahead of the book's October publication. Navalny, a fierce Putin foe, died in an Arctic prison in February while serving a 19 year term. The memoir, written during his confinement, portrays coping strategies and a defiant stance against authoritarianism.
