Andrey Kolesnikov. Unknown Chubais. Pages from the biography. - M.: Zakharov, 2003. - 160 pp., circulation 20,000 copies. ISBN 5-8159-0377-9
What is hidden under the helmet, or everything you wanted (if you wanted, of course) to know about Anatoly Borisovich Chubais. Now the gaping gap in our knowledge has finally been filled. The famous journalist and columnist for the Izvestia newspaper Andrei Kolesnikov published a (no doubt, most truthful) biography of one of the most influential politicians in today's Russia. This authorized biography is accompanied by touching photographs of the life path of Anatoly Borisovich. This photographic series is capable of touching even the most chronic skeptic. Here is the youth Tolya looking at us, and here is the young man Anatoly with thick curly hair in a vest and storm jacket, “a fighter and commander of construction detachments,” sitting on the worn steps of the landing stage, already looking somewhere to the side. Well, the book was on time, the book was not late. This is probably a must have for lovers of political biographies.
“One thing is more or less obvious - Anatoly Chubais is not the successor of Vladimir Putin. He is not a person from his team, and not only due to the peculiarities of his political origin. Chubais himself is the leader of the team. His team. And he cannot be recruited to a second role in someone else’s national team".
