This audiobook takes listeners on a journey through Europe's historic towns, revealing how these storied places have been shaped by, and now conceal, complex political histories. Marek Kohn explores seven key locations, examining how their preserved facades often mask the turbulent events and narratives that have defined them. Offering insight into the politics of memory and history, the story invites reflection on how these old towns can foster a sense of belonging and empathy amidst Europe's ongoing history of conflict.
