For Carlo Reltas, Carkania means the countries on the edge of the Carpathians and in the Balkans. On his round trips, he visits fascinating cities such as pre-war Kiev and Odessa, Istanbul, Tirana, Sarajevo and Ljubljana. He also makes a detour to the supposedly «queasy Minsk». Carlo Reltas invites his readers to accompany him on his journeys and walks through the main cities and other important towns in south-eastern Europe. He shares his impressions, his experiences and interweaves them with historical and political-social background, sometimes with commentary. At the end, he even proclaims a new capital for Europe.
The author was a journalist and manager of the international news agency Agence France-Presse (AFP) for decades. Since leaving the news business, he has been living on the edge of the Odenwald and travelling.
