Krátky popis
Three textile roads tangle their way through Central Asia. The
famous Silk Road united east and west through trade. Older still
was the Wool Road, of critical importance when houses made from
wool enabled nomads to traverse the inhospitable winter steppes.
Then there was the Cotton Road, marked by greed, colonialism and
environmental disaster.At this intersection of human history,
fortunes were made and lost through shimmering silks, life-giving
felts and gossamer cottons. Chris Aslan, who has spent fifteen
years living and working in the region, expertly unravels the
strands of this tangled history and embroiders them with his own
experiences of life in the heart of Asia.
