It's so sad, and frightening really. So much of Russia has been left like this, slowly being reclaimed by nature. I was recently in central Siberia, and much of the landscape there is very similar, though for reasons less terrifying than the Chernobyl disaster. With jobs and money flowing to Moscow, and the bankrupting of the Soviet economy, much has been left abandoned or left unfinished in the Russian hinterland. Crumbling factories, industrial towns, and entire villages lay abandoned alongside incomplete public works and road bridges. It's a surreal country.
What a compelling diary. Just incredible stuff.
