Inhaltsangabe:

A sweeping panorama of the author's life from the outbreak of WWII to the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. The narrative begins in Ukraine and ends in Paris where he coordinated the work of fty undercover interviewers engaged in unorthodox research with Soviet visitors in Western Europe, a chapter of Cold War history never revealed in such remarkable detail. The story includes the author's narrow escape from Communism, an account of his extended family's ordeal in the Soviet Gulag, life in post-war Bavaria, thirty years in Chicago and culminates with twelve years in France where he worked for the International Energy Agency and Radio Liberty.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: A Ukrainian born American, Jaroslaw Martyniuk's experience in the oil sector led him to a diplomatic post with the IEA/OECD in Paris. In the mid-eighties he joined the Soviet Area Audience and Opinion Research office in Paris, part of Radio Liberty headquartered in Munich. In 1995, Martyniuk moved to Washington where he continued conducting specialized research for the international broadcasters until he retired in 2011. He speaks five languages and during his multiple careers he travelled to over fifty countries in Europe and the former Soviet Union.
