Review:
"The nasty realities of a collapsed empire (...) falls to
Bendiksen to chronicle.
He does so expertly, the sadness inescapable." -- Adam Goldman, The Associated Press

Satellites is a compelling journey through unrecognized

Transdniester, Abkhazia, Nagorno-Karabakh, the Ferghana Valley, the Jewish
Autonomous Region, and the spaceship crash zones near the Kazakh Steppe,
and in the process reveals that the narrative of the Soviet collapse
continues to evolve.
