The author was planning to write about Bonelli’s Eagle, but it turned out about Love,
Oak Bark Decoction, Communism, Epilasia mirabilis, UFO, Gripsack, War in
Afghanistan, Helicopters in Canada, Coconuts in India, Battery for Kamikaze,
Edimnovo, Balashiha, Tarusa, “Old” Russians, AB Station, Wolf Snake, Life and
Death, Parts of the Whole, about Kings and Cabbage…
It’s not the author’s fault. It just so happened…
S. Polozov
P.S. This text (narrative nonfiction) has been written in accordance to tradition of an
ancient Eastern “Frame Novel": core plot – a “Frame” (numbered parts about the
search for the illusive eagle in 1982-1986 in Turkmenistan) is framing the "Picture"
that is the book (chapters with their individual titles, covering events of 1960-2000 in
Russia, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, India, and Canada).

in one sitting. It is a wonderful book
about self and our time. It seemed as if
I had been talking with a close friend..."
