A Slow Boat to Moscow (2003)
In September 2000 I made my first visit to Russia.
On this trip I took a very intriguing river journey from St.
Petersburg to Moscow. The characters I encountered and incidents
that took
place, both on and off the boat, turned it into such a memorable
voyage that I couldn’t help writing it all down and discovering
that it made both a funny and sometimes touching story. Descriptions
of the places I visited in the two cities - and in the wonderful
countryside and towns between them - are interlaced with tales
of a love-struck barmaid, the Russian Mafia and a mysterious
coffin.
Two years later I returned to Moscow to continue my Russian adventure which
I have now added to the first story to give what I hope is an enjoyable
personal impression of, and maybe even a little insight into, 21st century
Russia and its amazing people and treasures. The book is illustrated with
some of the photographs I took on the two journeys.
