Journey to Karabakh

By Aka Morchiladze and  

A young man travels from Georgia to Karabakh, a contested region between
Armenia and Azerbaijan, in order to buy cheap drugs. Taken prisoner
first by the Azeris and then by the Armenians, he spends long enough
away from home that he finds he isn't really in such a hurry to escape.
Is there anything waiting for him back home, so soon after the end of
Georgia's own war, where he's weighed down by an alcoholic father and a
pregnant girlfriend his family will never accept? What is freedom, and
might it be enjoyed just as well in captivity as at large? One of the
best-selling novels ever released in Georgia, and the basis for two
feature films, this is a book about the tricky business of finding--and
defining--liberty.
