"A book that takes you on an intimate journey through Eastern Europe at a time when the dust was still settling from the collapse of the Berlin Wall. Eva Hoffman travels from the Baltic to the Black Sea, building a compelling portrait of a region uncertain about its future." (Independent). Shortly after the epochal events of 1989 Eva Hoffman spent several months in her native Poland and four other countries: the then - Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria. She visited capital cities, wayside villages and sleepy provincial towns; stopped at shipyards, museums, private homes and the coffee-houses of the intelligentsia; and talked to a great variety of people about the historical transformations they had lived through. Exit to History was the result: a portrait of the eclectic mosaic of the new Eastern Europe, a reconstruction of the turbulent post-war decades, and a meditation on the uses and misuses of historical memory.
