Frazier's first solo trip to Siberia . . . wonderful description of his time at the Nome Nugget Motel and of his time in Nome. . . enjoyable depression . . . architectural tour includes as -- not to be missed -- the two trees in Nome, neither more than shrubs. . . not the end of the road because no roads make it that far . . . diesel fuel . . . longish retelling of Pushkin story of a duel . . . recounting of strange visits to Russia made from Nome . . . Mexican walking . . . cold water swimmer . . . wild schemes for tunnels from US to Russia
Excellent start . . . orphaned girl with a knack for chess, taught by janitor, harsh orphanage despite its courtly look.
