That dump called Europe

Aleksander Kaczorowski writes enthusiastically about the anthology "Last & Lost. An atlas of disappearing Europe", in which writers describe their quest for the lost and the forgotten in Europe. "It turns out that 15 authors from several European countries – people with lives and experiences that are as disparate as they can be only in Europe – are on the same wavelength. Despite everything, the much doubted European identity comes over as live and kicking – even in the sphere of art, where ideas and solutions are really put to the test. Although it's difficult to believe sometimes: we are genuinely proud of that dump called Europe."
