Some of the pictures have an archaic feeling and reminds one that they would have looked like this if taken a million years ago, but in most, man is at the centre - people working, looking at the landscape, or their houses scattered around the place. Yevtushenko also brings a powerful series of portraits of people of his Siberian hometown; they have a quiet dignity and sense of of experience. There's also a bunch of his poems about the people of Siberia, of his childhood, and of the historical tragedies this country has witnessed ("The accidentless captain", "A personal letter from the Generalissimo" - i.e. Stalin). The poems are printed in Russian original and in a vivid English translation.
The idea of the book was no doubt to serve as a gesture of peace, and to show the common humanity of Russians, native Chukchee and Americans. It serves this purpose, and the images are, well, unforgettable. It should be reprinted.
