Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Written with wit and dry humour, Kalder embarks on a treasure hunt through the former Soviet Union. His travels are directed by the 5 challenges which his brother has set him and his pursuit of them makes for hilarious and bizarre reading. 'Antitourist' Daniel's previous travelogue, "The Lost Cosmonaut" was a cult hit, selling over 10,000 copies.

Publisher's description:

Guides us through various alternative realities, rebels and opportunists, and attempts to expand the possibilities of the travel memoir. This book offers an account of a modern day quest that attempts to reveal the lengths people will go to when they view the world through a 'strange telescope'.
