FURTHER READING

Looking beyond the personal vantage point of Bogd Mountain Peak, Landscape 09: Modes of Contribution offers a framework for mapping cultural and social contributions within the situated complexity of Khalkha Mongol life.

For a poetic reflection on how a familiar landscape enters memory, Mongolian Poetry 27: The Seal Pressed into Mind considers the enduring impressions that places and experiences leave upon the mind.

Returning more directly to Nukht, Letter from Mongolia 18: a deliberately interdisciplinary practice reflects on coming back to this particular place and the deepening of an interdisciplinary approach to writing Mongolian cultural difference.
