Book Description

January 9, 2008 Salt Modern Poets
Set in the West, Russia, Moldova and the Middle East, Katia Kapovich's "Cossacks and Bandits" explores the personal histories of survivors of sociopolitical and economic distress, who are the true modern hero and heroine. In the final reckoning, survival and dignity depend on creative thinking and a leap of the imagination.
