The Curtain and the Wall

"The Iron Curtain" by Timothy Phillips explores the legacy of Europe's division during the Cold War, traveling across 5,000 kilometers from the Arctic to the borders of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkey. Through encounters with local people and a journey through history, the book examines how the remnants of the Cold War era continue to influence modern society, identity, and borders in Europe. It offers insights into the complex emotions and perspectives surrounding a pivotal period that still shapes the present day.
