From the rear cover write-up : "Amazing changes in Eastern Europe erupt in world politics, and not one of America's foreign policy gurus comes within a country mile of predicting them", Eric Alterman wrote in "The New York Times" However, he continued , "The British writer Timothy Garton Ash has documented grassroots politics in Eastern Europe for 'The New York Review of Books' since 1984 . Even before Mr. Gorbachev, he reported that pressure for democratic change was building from below." "Comments like these are no surprise to 'New York Review' readers who have been perusing essays from Czechoslovak President Vaclev Havel since 1979. Havel's essays, which now come by fax from the Prague Castle, used to arrive via the Czech underground when he was in prison. Andrei Sakharov and Adam Michnik are other famous dissidents whose early essays for the 'Review' were written in prison or internal exile. In this book some of the best essays from dissident writers , plus a 'Conversation in Prague' by Philip Roth are collected in a single volume : "Writings From the East".
