In Bucharest, Romania's capital, Kaplan discovered that few Westerners were confirming on the country - one of the darkest edges of Europe through the Cold War. Within an powerful and cinematic travelogue, Kaplan explores the annals and culture of the only real country in the Western world where in fact the leading intellectuals have been right-wing somewhat than left-wing; a country that gave rise to the dictator Ion Antonescu, Hitler's key international accomplice during WWII; a country where in fact the Latin Western world mixes with the Greek East, producing a amazing fusion of ethnicities. In Europe's Shadow is a deep and brilliant immersion into one place, a country that is a metaphor for Europe's current obstacle in confronting Vladimir Putin's Russia. With all the excellent, insightful Kaplan as our narrator and eyewitness, this publication is a shorthand masterpiece about imperialism and a country critical to our understanding of the last hundred years in Europe.
