'That got me back into reading, an incredible interesting and well-written book by a clever, thoughtful writer. At the turn of the century Mak set off to explore Europe, exploring the events of the twentieth century broadly chronologically if he went. A reminder of the horrors Europe has faced, but delivered compassionately and articulately. i really enjoyed Mak's travels around America too, so am now looking for other things in translation by him. we are off to the Peak District tomorrow for a holiday, I really need it, but lots of work to do first
