The book is a comparative case study of collective memory in two
small communities situated on two Central-European borderlands.
Despite different pre-war histories, Ukrainian Zhovkva (before 1939
Polish Zolkiew) and Polish Krzyz (before 1945 German Kreuz) were to
share a common fate of many European localities, destroyed and
rebuilt in a completely new shape. As a result of war, and post-war
ethnic cleansing and displacement, they lost almost all of their
pre-war inhabitants and were repopulated by new people. Based on
more than 150 oral history interviews, the book describes the
process of reconstruction of social microcosm, involving the reader
in a journey through the lives of real people entangled in the
dramatic historical events of the 20th century.
