Camel from Kyzylkum: A Memoir What does it take to leave everything behind in search of freedom? Born in Ukraine and later working in the Kyzylkum Desert of Uzbekistan, Lara Gelya spent the first half of her life behind the Iron Curtain. In 1989, at the age of thirty-nine, she fled the crumbling Soviet Union as a stateless refugee — carrying little more than hope. Her journey took her across Austria and Italy before she finally reached the United States, where she began the long and difficult process of rebuilding her life. With honesty and vivid detail, Lara shares her experiences of growing up under Soviet rule, navigating cultural dislocation, and finding strength in the face of uncertainty. Camel from Kyzylkum is more than a memoir of immigration — it is a story of resilience, courage, and the universal search for freedom and belonging. Perfect for listeners of historical memoirs, refugee stories, and anyone who values the enduring power of the human spirit.Ver livro

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). A new scientific study has suggested that aliens may have been on Earth in ancient times and that they may have created humanity. The study, conducted by a team of international scientists, suggests that a group of aliens known as the ‘Anunnaki’ may have come to Earth around 4,000 years ago from the planet Nibiru. The study claims that the aliens created humans by splicing their own DNA with that of apes. The study has been met with scepticism by many scientists, who say that it is based on dubious evidence. However, the team of scientists behind the study say that their evidence is ‘compelling’ and that the theory should be taken seriously. So, what do you think? Were aliens on Earth in ancient times and did they create humanity? We’re about to find out.Ver livro
