The world-famous Russian traveler Fyodor Konyukhov spends most of his life in oceans, expeditions to the poles, and the highest peaks. Fyodor Konyukhov’s new book is about how important it can be for each of us to remain alone sometimes—in order to understand ourselves and become stronger. It is also about why building a temple begins with one’s own soul.
What does Fyodor see as the modern world? What is loneliness and should it be feared? What future does the author dream of for himself and his loved ones? Is he searching for truth in his past? What prayers does he address to God?
Staying one on one with his thoughts, feelings, dreams, and prayers, the traveler, priest, and artist gains the chance to look into the deepest parts of his soul—and shares his unique experience of overcoming hardships, doubts, and mistakes.
