Book excerpt: Heather Kirk's WARSAW SPRING is designated for 'young adults'. This 'old adult' enjoyed it thoroughly and admires Kirk's success, particularly in the character of Eva, the narrator. She is eighteen years old and totally alienated from everyone in her Edmonton world. Her mother, Magda, her step-father, George, even her beloved Polish grandmother, Babka, all of them are completely outside of Eva's understanding and sympathy. Kirk is good at the dialogue that Eva engages in with others -- and especially good at her own internal dialogue. When she runs away to Poland to find her relatives, and, she hopes, her father whom she has never seen, she begins a rocky maturing journey that was to me completely convincing. The climax for Eva is a dual experience -- being taken to see the former hell of Auschwitz where unimaginable evil was done to millions, and then the wonderfully moving blessing of the Pope's inspirational progress through his beloved homeland. We leave Eva in the process of her maturing, often stumbling but already a very different young woman from the former cynical, angry, self-despising rebel. She demands and earns our sympathetic involvement. One volume is not enough to satisfy this reader -- her springtime is an engrossing story. I look forward to her summer blooming

Book excerpt: Eva is a seventeen-year-old from Edmonton in 1979 who is experiencing a world of trouble at home. To escape the trouble, she decides to visit her family’s homeland of Poland for the summer, staying with an older half-sister, Hanna, whose existence Eva has only recently discovered. In Communist Poland, she experiences a different way of living, one where the conveniences she has taken for granted do not exist. She finds, however, the rich cultural traditions both fascinating and compelling. She meets a mysterious, charming young man named Mark, who shows her around the city, but his anger and disenchantment disturb her. The first seeds of the Solidarity Uprising are starting to grow and the workers, peasants and intellectuals are beginning to unite under the leadership of the church. Eva’s visit also takes place during the Papal visit to Poland which galvanized the people to strike their blow for freedom. Against this tumultuous backdrop, Eva learns about the resilience in herself and her politically maturing people.

Book excerpt: On August 20, 1968, tens of thousands of Soviet and East European ground and air forces moved into Czechoslovakia and occupied the country in an attempt to end the "Prague Spring" reforms and restore an orthodox Communist regime. The leader of the Soviet Communist Party, Leonid Brezhnev, was initially reluctant to use military force and tired to pressure his counterpart in Czechoslovakia, Alexander Dubccaron;ek, to crack down. But during the summer of 1968, after several months of careful deliberations, the Soviet Politburo finally decided that military force was the only option left. A large invading force of Soviet, Polish, Hungarian and Bulgarian troops received final orders to move into Czechoslovakia; within twenty-four hours they had established complete military control of Czechoslovakia, bringing and end to hopes for "socialism with a human face."
