Goodbye Eastern Europe : An Intimate History of a Divided Land by Jacob Mikanowski

An epic history of the �?~other�?T Europe, a place of conflict and coexistence, of faith and folklore. �?~Do not rush to bid farewell to eastern Europe until reading this book. Meticulously researched and beautifully written, this very personal story of the place that one can�?Tt find on the map pays tribute to the origins of the experiences, cultures and ideas that continue to shape political and ideological battles of the modern world.�?T Serhii PlokhyEastern 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. *****�?~An insightful chronicle�?� distilling more than a decade of research, [Mikanowski] carefully argues that if something marks out Europe�?Ts eastern half, it is not homogeneity but wild, glorious diversity.�?T �?"Economist�?~A lively and sweeping history.�?T �?"Washington Post�?~Goodbye Eastern Europe is a thematic history of a divided half-continent, a goulash of imperial histories, shifting frontiers and heartbreaking family stories, spiced with myth and poet-martyrs, and deeply satisfying on the palate�?� vital and informed.�?T �?"TLS; 400 pages; 18/05/2023
