What to read next
Lighthouses of Sakhalin
Not a travelogue and not field notes. The book fuses autofiction, expedition documentary, and philosophical prose. The lighthouses become living characters; memory flares in personal recollection, where the myth of the Blue Bear sounds beside the voice of Bronisław Piłsudski and the living voices of the crew.
The Smoke Merchant
The history of tobacco, told through the tangled relationship of Albrecht Dürer and Christopher Columbus, is woven into a detective plot set in Nicaragua, 2024, during the thirteenth wave of the pandemic — as a nightmarish past catches up with the Spanish cigar seller Luis Sánchez.
Pontograph
Amid the intricate nuances of the modern world unfolds a story where authenticity and artifice subtly intertwine, leading us through an endless carnival of reinterpretation. Names, places, and escapades play their whimsical roles, enchanting us like jesters in the grand play of life.
Dervishes on Motorcycles. Caspian Nomads
A novel based on Maxim Privezentsev's travel notes from his 2017 motorcycle journey around the Caspian Sea. One of its storylines draws on the famous 1933 Moscow–Kara-Kum–Moscow automobile rally, in particular the diaries of its participant Boris Semevsky.
