Brief annotation
Igor Rotary is an analyst journalist, reporter and columnist. He worked as a war correspondent in all the wars of the former Soviet Union.
In your hands - notes of an itinerant reporter from both continents of the Western Hemisphere. Sketches about life in the United States: work, recreation, interethnic relations, religion, migration, religion, protection of cultural heritage and nature, etc.
Having moved to live in the United States, I deliberately did not lead the life of a typical local everyman. I made a living writing articles in different media, doing lecture tours to different American universities, and sometimes not even squeamish "bombing" a taxi driver in Uber. This life had huge advantages - I was not tied to one place and could afford long journeys around the country. I often spent the night in a tent, meeting a lot of people, including the homeless and downshifters. I lived on Indian reservations and in a remote village in an Alaskan taiga, achievable only by boat or plane.
Of course, this book describes not only extreme America. I wanted to show as many facets of American life as possible. The chapter on Mexico is also not accidental. Previously, this country belonged to all the southern states of the United States, and today the south of America "mexico" again. Today, Mexicans are the ethnic majority in many border areas and have almost completely monopolized the market for unskilled labour.
