About this listen

Take an unforgettable journey from the Cold War USSR to Savery, Wyoming, from the mountains of Tuscany to the peak of Yosemite's Half Dome, from the Canadian wilderness to the beaches of Normandy.

James Morehead's (Poet Laureate, Dublin, California) acclaimed collection is built around a series of memoir poems that takes listeners into pre-perestroika Soviet Union through the eyes of a teenager, from Moscow to Tbilisi to Leningrad (and many stops in-between). The striking cover, designed by Zoe Norvell, is based on a 1982 lithograph by Igor Prilutsky.
