Simon Sebag Montefiore
Simon Sebag Montefiore is a British historian and novelist. Montefiore’s initial career as a foreign affairs journalist meant that he was reporting from the Soviet Union just as Communism began to collapse. The majority of his books are centred on Russia - from his first historical work Catherine the Great and Potemkin to a landmark biography of the Romanovs and authoritative accounts of the life of Stalin - yet his most critically lauded and successful book, Jerusalem: The Biography, steps out of the confines of the Soviet bloc. In addition to his non-fiction work Montefiore has also written a trilogy of novels set in Moscow during the first half of the twentieth century, and a series of children’s books co-authored with his novelist wife, Santa, called The Royal Rabbits of London.
Recounting nothing less than the history of humanity through the overarching theme of family, Montefiore weaves an epic, page-turning story that features everyone from the Leopard-King of Benin to Margaret Thatcher.
