A Country in the Moon - Travels in Search of the Heart of Poland

Moran gives an insider's view of Poland, reflecting on the landscape, people and history of what was once one of the largest and most powerful nations in Europe. Funny, informative and insightful. Shows the quirky, colourful side of Polish life obscured by memories of communism, and looks at the dark side of Polish history - anti-Semitism and the Holocaust.
