Following the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, a vast radiation-tainted zone was ruthlessly evacuated. Yet today it is teeming with life. This unique travelogue introduces the people and places of an uncharted Chernobyl, from ruined Soviet-era factories in Belarus, to secretive 'stalker' subcultures in Ukraine -- and finally to the epicentre of the disaster, the irradiated heart of the nuclear power plant itself.
