“一部令人惊叹的全新传记，彻底革新了我们对 Stalin 及其所处时代的理解。它具备神话般的特质：一个贫穷鞋匠的儿子、来自俄罗斯帝国偏远受压迫省份的神学院学生，将自己重塑为一个狂热革命集团的最高领袖。当该团伙在全面世界大战的余波中夺取国家政权后，这位前神学生冷酷无情地掌控了新政权，直至成为庞大而可怖的国家机器的独裁统治者，威加欧亚大陆。在布尔什维克独裁体制内部继续构建权力根基的同时，他踏上

如果你在找同类风格的作品，我非常喜欢 Kotkin 写的斯大林传记第一卷：https://www.amazon.com/Stalin-Paradoxes-1878-1928-Stephen-Ko...
I really enjoyed the first volume of Kotkin’s Stalin biography, if you’re looking for something in a similar vein: https://www.amazon.com/Stalin-Paradoxes-1878-1928-Stephen-Ko...
Stephen Kotkin（文章中简短提到了）是普林斯顿大学的历史学教授，也是公认的顶尖斯大林研究学者。他写过不少神作，在 YouTube 上也有关于该主题的长篇访谈。他的讲座/著作中有一点格外突出，那就是他提出斯大林并不是一个精神病态杀手（不像……
Stephen Kotkin (briefly referenced in the article) is a history professor at Princeton University and known as the leading Stalin scholar. He's written amazing books and has long interviews on the subject on youtube. One thing that stood out from his talks/books is that he proposes that Stalin was no a psychopathic killer (unlike…
这里有一个普林斯顿大学教授 Stephen Kotkin 聊斯大林的精彩访谈：http://www.hoover.org/research/hoover-fellow-stephen-kotkin-... 。他显然是个非常有魅力、讨人喜欢的人。这个访谈直接说服我买了书。
Here's a great interview with Stephen Kotkin, Princeton professor, about Stalin: http://www.hoover.org/research/hoover-fellow-stephen-kotkin-... . He was apparently a very charismatic and likable guy. The interview convinced me to buy the book.
今年夏天我读了 Stephen Kotkin 写的极出色的斯大林三部曲，Kotkin（绝非苏联辩护者；他是个保守派）认为斯大林是个政治天才，一个现代马基雅维利。比如在这篇访谈 [1] 里，他解释了斯大林的……
I read Stephen Kotkin's excellent three part series on Stalin this summer and Kotkin (who is by no means a Soviet apologist; he's a conservative) thinks Stalin was a political genius, a modern Machiavelli. For example, in this interview [1] he explains how Stalin's…
Montefiore 很擅长讲最动听的故事，而不是最准确的事实。他第一本书的大部分内容都是基于已知捏造的史料。我反而更推荐 Kotkin 写的斯大林传记。
Montefiore is a great one for telling the best story instead of the correct one. Much of his first book is based on sources known to be fabricated. I would recommend Kotkin's Stalin biography instead.
如果你想看更详尽、没那么戏剧化的内容，我推荐 Kotkin 正在撰写的多卷本传记，从《Stalin: Paradoxes of Power, 1878-1928》（斯大林：权力的悖论）开始。它正在成为（如果现在还不算的话）斯大林研究的权威之作。
If you want something more extensive and less dramatized, I'd recommend Kotkin's ongoing multi-volume biography starting with Stalin: Paradoxes of Power, 1878-1928. It's becoming (if it isn't already) the definitive work on Stalin.
