Sovietstan
by Erika Fatland

In this book author Erica Fatland brings us stories from across a wide region covering Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. Kyrgyzstan, the land of the wild tulip and of the Tulip Revolution, was originally a nomadic country and is now one of the most democratic countries in central Asia, with the greenest capital. There we meet a variety of local characters: a taxi driver, a snatch-and-run bride, and an Eagle Man.
