From Here to Babylon: Poems by Pavel Chichikov

"From Here to Babylon" takes the reader on that journey. Along the way we meet angels and devils, saints and con men, the devout and the devious. There is suffering but also hope, outrage but also beauty, mystery beyond our power to explain.

These eighty-seven poems are a travel guide to destinations we might never expect. Not turning away from hard truths about our human experience and our common destiny, they show the world we can see, and worlds beyond ordinary perception.
