Description:
London: HarperCollins , 1992. Hardcover. Good/good. With the unlikely cast of a Tamworth pig, a coffin, two elderly aunts and a battered Trabant, the author creates a fantastic tableau that embraces the horrors, betrayals and ironies of modern East European history. Humerous and black, touched with the surreal and the farcical, this is an exceptionally vivid story of a journey from the Baltic to the Black Sea, between Berlin and Moscow, through an Eastern Europe divested of fear and free to face its past. Grows in stature with every page. Size, 24 x 16cm, 211 pages, maps on endpapers. Ex-library, front endpaper removed, some library markings. Blue cloth boards in good illustrated dust jacket. Internally, good: generally clean and unmarked in sound bindings.

Description:
London, United Kingdom: HarperCollins, 1992. Book won the Yorkshire Post Best First Work award. It was chosen as a Book of the Year and short listed for the Thomas Cook/'Daily Telegraph Travel Book Prize. "A journey in a decrepit Trabant, in the company of a theatrically eccentric aunt, a Tamworth pig and (in Czechoslovakia) the coffin of a long-dead pilot strapped to the roof cannot be the stuff of literal reality. The reader is invited, instead, into a stark, hyper-real world. 'Stalin's Nose' is not so much a travelogue as the intense distillation of a journey, and its crazy progress becomes an allegory of the tortured countries through which the travellers go. For this is the Eastern Europe of 1989-90, emerging from its Communist nightmare into a world of smoke and mirrors, confronted by its own delusions and half-truths, hypocrisies and self-blindings. Nazism and Stalinism have become interchangeable myths, bodied out in personal lives." CONDITION Map eps, 211 pages.…
