Inside the bunker with Zelensky: an exclusive interview with Simon Shuster
In his first book, The Showman, Simon relates how he saw firsthand Zelensky conduct this war, from the bunker to the frontlines, and how he used his experience as a communicator to articulate, and inspire, the country’s defiance.In the book and our interview, Simon examines how the brutal invasion and Ukrainian resistance changed Zelensky, creating a tougher, more serious man than he had first met in 2019 on the eve of his astonishing presidential victory.It was a privilege to be able to speak to Simon – a longtime listener of the podcast – and understand more about his time in the Presidential bunker during the first year of the war.Simon's book is available from the following links:UK Listeners:https://harpercollins.co.uk/products/the-showman-the-inside-story-of-the-invasion-that-shook-the-world-and-made-a-leader-of-volodymyr-zelensky-simon-shuster?variant=40442165362766US/International Listeners:https://www.harpercollins.com/products/the-showman-simon-shuster?variant=41083800682530 Hosted on Acast.
