About this book
"In this book, everyday people talk about their lives in Romania, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. They describe Soviet domination, revolution in their respective countries, and adaptation to free society. These individuals - entrepreneurs, artists, political activists, scientists, and teachers - are assuming leadership roles in local politics and implementing reforms in the schools. Meanwhile, they struggle with philosophical and cultural adjustments to a world profoundly changed - and still changing everyday."--Jacket.
