This interview celebrates the launch of Konstantin Voskresenskiy's 'Adventures of Kesha the Russian Boy' as an audio book in English, along with a collection of his poems, again voiced in English by me.

It is furthermore a celebration of creative collaboration across global boundaries and cultural understandings, that transcends politics and stereotypes. It shows what can be done with unbounded creative intent, a will to cooperate and enabling technology.

The Adventures of Kesha the Russian Boy is a coming-of-age story about the poet and engineer Konstantin Voskresenskiy, written as an autobiography. This fascinating account of the adventures of one young man takes place at a turning point in history: the early years of modern Russia, the following the collapse of the Soviet Union. This book is intended for a broad readership.
