God Lives in St Petersburg

Libro Usado, Tapa Blanda. "A stunning debut collection of fiction from the author of Chasing the Sea. Set in Central Asia, these six stories explore the lives of Americans who find themselves far from home and out of their depth in a region marked by history, isolation, and geopolitical shift. From a doctor treating a deadly disease near the toxic Aral Sea to a journalist caught in a strange web of local politics, Tom Bissell’s characters confront the unsettling gap between their expectations and the raw reality of the post-Soviet world. Darkly funny, vivid, and deeply human, this collection captures the chaotic collision of Western idealism with the complex landscape of modern Asia Central."
