Sobre este título
What does it take to leave everything behind in search of freedom?
Born in Ukraine and later working in the Kyzylkum Desert of Uzbekistan, Lara Gelya spent the first half of her life behind the Iron Curtain. In 1989, at the age of 39, she fled the crumbling Soviet Union as a stateless refugee—carrying little more than hope. Her journey took her across Austria and Italy before she finally reached the United States, where she began the long and difficult process of rebuilding her life.
With honesty and vivid detail, Lara shares her experiences of growing up under Soviet rule, navigating cultural dislocation, and finding strength in the face of uncertainty. Camel from Kyzylkum is more than a memoir of immigration—it is a story of resilience, courage, and the universal search for freedom and belonging.
Perfect for listeners of historical memoirs, refugee stories, and anyone who values the enduring power of the human spirit.
