description: "Behind Closed Eyes" offers a unique combination of historical fact, personal perspective, and fictional hypothesis. Based on the author’s own experiences driving to Moscow in 1961, this insightful work offers a survey of the tensions that led up to the closing of the border between East and West Berlin. These three decades of separation began only days after the author’s return trip. Utilizing the structure of imagined hypnotic suggestions, the Soviet perspective is integrated within the account of the author’s observations and reflections, allowing readers a more comprehensive view of the Cold War. "Behind Closed Eyes" presents a political history through the eyes of the common man, preserving the sentiments and realities of the times.
