In this delightful collection of essays -- by turns wry and
reflective, wistful and witty -- contemporary Polish writer Andrzej
Stasiuk turns his attention to the villages and small towns of
Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Albania, and of course his native
Poland. Stasiuk travels to places no tourist would think of
visiting, and in his characteristically lyrical prose, lays out his
own unique and challenging perspective on the fascinating, unknown
heart of Central Europe. He reminds us of the area's
extraordinarily rich cultural and ethnic makeup, explores its
literature, and shows how its history is inscribed permanently in
its landscapes. Above all, he describes with fascination how past,
present, and future co-exist and intertwine along the highways and
back roads of the region.
