Wonderfully entertaining and genuinely enlightening, Mikanowski’s heartfelt tribute to the peoples of Eastern Europe dispels stereotypes and subverts received wisdom in every chapter.

Goodbye Eastern Europe: An Intimate History of a Divided Land

In the wake of the Soviet Union’s collapse, the bonds forged between twenty nations under the sway of the Red Star have dissolved. What exactly united them in the first place?

Eastern Europe is more than the sum total of its annexations, invasions and independence declarations. From the Baltics to the Balkans, from Prague to Kiev, the area exuded a tragicomic character like no other.

This is a paean for a disappearing world of movable borders, sacred groves and syncretism. And an invitation to not forget.
