After the fall of the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe as a whole is rarely spoken of. The question of where Estonia is located is more likely to be answered “in the Baltics”, and Croatia is more likely to be attributed to the Adriatic or the Balkans. Eastern Europe does not exist in the public consciousness. Meanwhile, this land has a colorful history: each of the many peoples inhabiting it has its own myths, habits and memories of centuries of hard work and struggle for a bright “tomorrow”. A lover of literature, history and researcher of his own family past, Jakub Mikanowski paints a detailed portrait of the region and wonders about its future. You will learn about the amazing mix of Islamic and Christian traditions in Romania and Albania; the role of the Ottomans in the formation of the Balkan countries and the Black Sea region. Prague and Warsaw as the capitals of magic and occultism; the struggles of the peoples of the Austro-Hungarian Empire; the bizarre forms of personality cult of the communist leaders of the Eastern Bloc; as well as the places of the greatest concentration of vampires, cases in which marriage was concluded in the cemetery, and the European who converted the Golden Horde to Islam.
