(B&W photographs) "In 1989, Romania exploded in revolution. Suddenly the borders were open and those who had fled Nicholae Ceausescu's tyranny could now revisit their roots. Among them was [the author], once Romania's most famous opposition writer, now a best-selling American author and successful Hollywood filmmaker. This book is the story of his journey. It is also a fascinating account of growing up under 'ordinary Communism.'" . (Inventory #: 23396)
