Since the break-up of the Soviet Union, its former Central Asian republics have oscillated between dictatorship and democracy, secularism and Islam. The acclaimed Norwegian travel writer Erika Fatland explores their history, culture and politics, from the Silk Road mosques of Khiva and Samarkand to the nuclear test site at Semipalatinsk, meeting nomadic horsemen in Turkmenistan, a struggling mother in Tajikistan, and Chinese shrimp gatherers beside the desiccated Aral Sea.
