More about the book

Set against the backdrop of twentieth-century Eastern Europe, the narrative unfolds in two contrasting villages: one a site of peasant rebellion against Communism, the other a model village transformed under Dictator Ceausescu. These locations embody nearly a century of social upheaval and transformation, reflecting the struggles and sacrifices of their inhabitants. The story explores themes of land, power, and the legacy of political change, culminating in their significance within the context of the modern European Union.
