description: "Born and raised in post-war Britain, Mark Zygadlo, like many of his generation with Polish expatriate parents, grew up with half his family in a dark and inaccessible place, behind the iron curtain. Politics, geography, and his father's reticence concerning his past, conspired to compound a mystery." This book describes a journey, not just his dying father's farewell to his country and family, but the much more complicated journey into his memory. On their trip together, Mark discovers a personal history he had very little idea of, and explores the man his father was.
