Большие ожидания связаны также с новой книжкой Боба Вудворда.

The book has extensive inside reporting on the coronavirus crisis from day one until the end of July. It will include new reporting from the White House on Trump's words, thoughts and decision-making about the virus including how Trump first reacted when he learned about it and what he said and did behind the scenes.
"Rage" is scheduled for release on September 15 and 1.3 million copies are being printed.
Jonathan Karp, CEO of Woodward's publisher Simon & Schuster, also published the tell-all bestsellers on Trump released earlier this year by former national security adviser John Bolton and Trump's niece Mary Trump. He told CNN, "'Rage' is the most important book Simon & Schuster will publish this year. Every voter should read it before November 3."
In January, Trump revealed he had sat down with Woodward for the upcoming book, which came as a surprise after he was harshly critical of "Fear." Woodward had repeatedly offered Trump the opportunity to be interviewed for that book, but Trump pretended he had never received the requests.
According to multiple sources familiar with the book, Woodward conducted 17 interviews with Trump for "Rage" at the White House, Mar-a-Lago and over the phone between December 2019 and late July 2020.
Woodward is known to record all of his interviews with the permission of his subjects and sources. CNN has learned Woodward did hundreds of hours of interviews with other first-hand witnesses, and according to his publisher, obtained "notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents" including 25 personal letters between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
In 2019, White House officials were quoted by The Washington Post as calling the Trump-Kim correspondence "love letters" -- and sources familiar with the book say the letters are "extraordinary." According to Simon & Schuster, in one letter "Kim describes the bond between the two leaders as out of a 'fantasy film.'"
In a statement, Simon & Schuster said the book will be a "volatile and vivid" look at the "turmoil, contradictions and risks" of the Trump presidency.
