No one in their right mind travels across Siberia in the middle of winter in a modified Russian jeep, with only a CD player (which breaks on the first day) for company. But Jacek Hugo–Bader is no ordinary traveler. As a fiftieth birthday present to himself, Jacek Hugo–Bader sets out to drive from Moscow to Vladivostok, traversing a continent that is two and a half times bigger than America, awash with bandits, and not always fully equipped with roads. But if his mission sounds deranged it is in keeping with the land he is visiting. For Siberia is slowly dying — or, more accurately, killing itself. This is a traumatized post–Communist landscape peopled by the homeless and the hopeless: alcoholism is endemic, as are suicides, murders, and deaths from AIDS. As he gets to know these communities and speaks to the people, Hugo–Bader discovers a great deal of tragedy, but also dark humor to be shared amongst the reindeer shepherds, the former hippies, the modern–day rappers, the homeless and the sick, the shamans, and the followers of ‘one of the six Russian Christs,’ just one of the many arcane religions that flourish in this isolated, impossible region.

Jeffrey Tayler's intrepid journey up the Lena - a river closed to the world during the Soviet era - took him through some of Siberia's wildest and most hauntingly beautiful regions and brought him into contact with many groups of isolated villagers. These people survive in this region - now a wild frontier that lives off the diamond trade - cut off from the world by lack of roads, neglected by the Russian government and prey to alcoholism. Their untold stories form the the focus of the book, set against the backdrop of Tayler's descriptions of incredibly harsh weather conditions and his adventures in negotiating permission to travel in the region with Russian authorities and then navigating the Lena to its mouth in the Laptev Sea, above the arctic circle.

Excerpt from The New Russia: From the White Sea to the Siberian Steppe The journey depicted within the covers of this volume owes its genesis to a chance perusal of Mr. C. V. Hogarth's remarkable translation of Professor Kluchevsky's monumental History of Russia. To anyone who would wish to understand the Russia of to-day, that Russia which is astonishing and, if I mistake not, will continue to astonish the British public with its virility, its wealth of resource and the purity of its national ambitions, the above-mentioned work is one of the greatest fascination. For not only does it cover an immensity of historical ground, but certainly, in its translation, it is penned in such a manner as to whet the appetite for a first-hand experience of that wonderful North which is so bound up with the creation of the modern Russian Empire. At least that was the effect which it had upon me. For long had I tried to understand the country: during many visits thither and to Siberia I had been struck with the wonderful commercial opportunities which my countrymen had apparently hitherto refused to consider very seriously.
