Produktbeschreibung
Solidarity strikes are breaking out all over Communist Poland and Soviet forces seem set for a crackdown. A small group of student activists have taken over the vice-rector's office in a Warsaw university. One is Tom, a visiting student from Belfast, whose love for a girl from Gdansk is bad for them all. Another is Alex, the journalist whose family of agitators have secrets of their own. Then there is Michalski, their enigmatic leader. Over a decade later, on the brink of a new millennium and with Putin poised to take control in the Kremlin, the friends are reunited as Michalski seeks to become his country's president. How will the decisions he took during the strike - and while awaiting exile in the Europejski hotel - affect his chances now? And Tom - with a letter and a train ticket for Gdansk in his pocket - has his own decision to make.

Autorenporträt
Mark Quinn has always been creative. A strong desire to fulfil a childhood dream is what spurred him on to write and self-publish his first book back in 2012. He lives in Manchester, England, with his lovely wife and furry and feathered friends. He is active in charity work and supports a variety of local causes. Mark's wish is to entertain and amuse people with his poems, taking them out of their normal surroundings for just a brief time while they absorb his imagination through his writing; hopefully sending them back to reality with new things to think and be curious about. Happy reading!
