"Stalking the Atomic City is a rare portrait of the dystopian reality that is Chornobyl. Focusing on the site as it is today, Markiyan Kamysh introduces us to the marginalized people who call the Exclusion Zone their home, providing a haunting account of what total autonomy could mean in our growingly fractured world."--
