About the book
When Daniel Kalder descended into the sewers of Moscow in pursuit of the mythical lost city of tramps, he didn't realise that he was embarking on a bizarre, year-long odyssey that would lead him thousands of miles across Russia to the Arctic Circle via the heart of Asia. Now he has returned, mad-eyed and bearded to tell the tale. Salvation and damnation, humour and pathos - keen and caustic observations collide as Kalder guides us through alternative realities, rebels and opportunists, further expanding the possibilities of the travel memoir with this unique account of a modern-day quest that reveals the astonishing lengths people will go to when they view the world through a 'strange telescope'.
