Kazimierz Moczarski (1907-1975) was a journalist, soldier, and
political prisoner. His life exemplifies a Central European
biography under Nazism and Comunism. The addictive and moving
Civility in Uncivil Times reveals the story of a man who defended
law and democracy all his life. Moczarski fought for it in the
authoritarian Poland of the 1930s. During the Second World War, he
partook in the resistance movement. After the war, he spent eleven
years in a Stalinist prison, including nine months in one cell with
the Nazi Jurgen Stroop, who commanded the brutal pacification of
the Warsaw Ghetto. The communists imprisoned Moczarski's wife.
After release, he rebuilt the broken marriage, rejoined social
life, and wrote a work about meeting Stroop. Translated into many
languages, Conversations with the Executioner is a thorough study
of totalitarianism.
