sareidle 's review for:
Sovietistan
by Erika Fatland
adventurous
informative
reflective
slow-paced
I enjoyed learning about Soviet Central Asia through Erika Fatland's eyes. The prose was very readable and propelling. I liked how the history of each country was woven in to the travel diary style of writing. I was most interested in the Soviet era history, but each country has a long and rich history that is often unknown by westerners.
Graphic: Trafficking, Kidnapping
Moderate: Confinement, Genocide, Misogyny, War, Deportation
