Book Description
Without aiming to be a survival guide, romance or autobiography, Sunbathing in Siberia manages to be all of them and none. Told completely from the Trans-Siberian and a series of Russian jets, this is the story of a young British poet, who, after becoming engaged to his translator over 3500 miles east, embarks on a journey into Siberia.,Cyfrol sy’n gyfuniad o ramant, hunangofiant, a llawlyfr taith i oroesi, ond sy’n llawer mwy, yn cyflwyno stori bardd ifanc o Brydain sy’n cychwyn ar daith o dros 3500 milltir gyda’i ddyweddi – sy’n gyfieithydd iddo – i Siberia. — Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru
