‘To the Success of Our Hopeless Cause’: Benjamin Nathans at Pushkin House

Mon, 16 June6 : 30 PM
Location 5a Bloomsbury Square, Pushkin House

On June 16, Pushkin House will host a conversation between Professor Benjamin Nathans and journalist Martin Bright about To the Success of Our Hopeless Cause: The Many Lives of the Soviet Dissident Movement, shortlisted for the 2025 Pushkin House Book Prize.

Based on over two decades of research, the book charts the rise of the Soviet dissident movement and the diverse individuals who challenged authoritarian rule through banned texts, civil protests, and moral resistance. Nathans goes beyond politics to explore what their lives tell us about perseverance, rights, and civic courage — themes more relevant than ever.
