The implosion of the Soviet Union was the culmination of a gripping game played out between two men who intensely disliked each other and had different concepts for the future. Mikhail Gorbachev, a sophisticated and urbane reformer, sought to modernize and preserve the USSR; Boris Yeltsin, a coarse and a hard drinking “bulldozer,” wished to destroy the union and create a capitalist Russia. The defeat of the August 1991 coup attempt, carried out by hardline communists, shook Gorbachev’s authority and was a triumph for Yeltsin.

This book carefully and expertly weaves narratives of Gorbachev's time in power with practically ever hour of his last day in office. It's both extremely engaging and full of historical detail. The narrator's performance is also very good. One of the best audiobooks I've ever listened to.
