A 25-year-old motorcycle. A 70-year-old man. One of the most dangerous roads on Earth. The Kolyma Highway—better known as the Road of Bones—cuts through the vast emptiness of Siberia’s far east, a place where distances are measured in days, not miles, and where a simple breakdown can become a matter of life and death. When Lawrence Bransby sets out alone from Kyrgyzstan, his ageing DR350 has already spent two years abandoned in a dusty shed. Neither man nor machine should make it.

”Kaukasus og kildevand” fortæller om Bjørn Harvigs rejse til fods fra Sortehavet til Det Kaspiske Hav. Bjørn er ikke nogen almindelig eventyrer, det handler ikke så meget om at komme fra A til B, men mere om hvilke mennesker, han møder på vejen. Bjørn er god til at tale med folk, og i bogen genfortæller han mange af de skæbner, han mødte på sin lange rejse. Han fortæller om Ninel (Lenin stavet bagfra), som har 10 børn og som går tre km til den nærmeste sauna, for at få sig sit ugentlige bad. Han fortæller om drengen Nal, som drømmer om at blive fodboldstjerne.

On 1 September 2004, Chechen and Ingush militants took more than a thousand people captive at a school in the Caucasus region of southern Russia. Working as a correspondent, Tom Parfitt witnessed the bloody climax in which 314 hostages died, more than half of them children. The experience left Tom emotionally shredded, struggling to find a way to return to his life in Moscow and put to rest the ghosts of the Beslan siege. Having long been fascinated by the mountainous North Caucasus, Tom turned to his love of walking as a source of both recuperation and discovery.

"Igors æblehave" er Bjørn Harvigs beretning om hans cykelrejse fra det sommerlyse Skandinavien og ud på Ruslands uendelige veje, hvor landevejsrøvere spøger og vodkaen er billig. En rejse ind i de forladte byer i Tjernobyls skygge og ud til Sortehavets bredder. Ind i Kaukasus’ vilde bjerge, hvor middelalderbyer, Kalashnikovs og arrige hunde byder velkommen. Og endelig en rejse ind i Irans menneskelige mangfoldighed og til smagen af sød te. Kan gæstfriheden og Bjørns taknemmelighed over at møde fremmede venner overskygge de gribende indtryk af områder præget af krig, hungersnød og etniske udrensninger?
