Six Reasons to Travel
From the stage of the Tbilisi Opera House to pagan sacrifice in a Caucasus Mountain village, here's an accessible, in-depth, personal look at traditional Georgian music.But Six Reasons to Travel also has a surprising lot to say about how to propose a Georgian toast, how to go hunting if you're a vegetarian, how to learn all the parts to a song entirely by ear, how to fend off both wild dogs on the street and the death grip of Georgian hospitality at table-even how to make enemies in the Georgian academic world. And behind all the comedy lies the deeper story of what it was like for the people of a small country with a rich ancient culture to live through the exhilarating, traumatic collapse of the Soviet Empire.Stuart Gelzer first visited Georgia in the Cold War 1970s and has been back repeatedly over a span of more than thirty-five years. Much of Six Reasons covers the period when he was living and studying language and music intensively in Georgia in the 1990s, the critical decade in which Georgians saw their lives uprooted as they staggered into the post-Soviet world.Gelzer is far from an anonymous reporter gliding unobserved through modern Georgian life. As a member of Trio Kavkasia-quasi-celebrities in a country that takes its traditional music very seriously-he played a part in the early popularization of Georgian folk music abroad. Rather than a work of reportage, therefore, Six Reasons to Travel is the highly subjective, often irreverent, unexpectedly comical account of what happened to him along the way.

Once cut off from the rest of Europe by dictator Enver Hoxha, Albania has long been a source of fascination for Alex Klaushofer. Thirty years after the fall of communism, she spends a spring in Tirana, gaining a privileged insight into the country as it strives to join the modern West.Volunteering at Tirana's first hostel and interviewing a wide range of people, the author talks to a political prisoner about his experiences under the regime and meets the student activists trying to change a system which is still corrupt. She hears about the discrimination suffered by the disabled and sees how a new culture of caring for animals is slowly developing. She learns how, in a state where religion was banned, faith is making a comeback, why trafficking takes place and discovers how profoundly the architecture reflects the changing fortunes of the city.A compelling narrative and piece of informed reportage, Spyless in Tirana provides a rare insight into a colourful, chaotic country that is utterly unlike any other.Please note that as a 'travella' of 35,000 words, the book is about the third of the length of a conventional travelogue.
