520    An award-winning writer travels the eastern front of 
       Europe, where the push/pull between old empires and new 
       possibilities has never been more evident. Paolo Rumiz 
       traces the path that has twice cut Europe in two'first by 
       the Iron Curtain and then by the artificial scaffolding of
       the EU'moving through vibrant cities and abandoned 
       villages, some places still gloomy under the ghost of 
       these imposing borders, some that have sought to erase all
       memory of it and jump with both feet into the West (if 
       only the West would have them). In The Fault Line, he is a
       sublime and lively guide through these unfamiliar 
       landscapes, piecing together an atlas that has been erased
       by modern states, delighting in the discovery of 
       communities that were once engulfed by geopolitics then 
       all but forgotten, until now.The farther south he goes, 
       the more he feels he is traveling not along some abandoned
       Eastern frontier, but right in the middle of things: 
       Mitteleuropa wasn't to be found in Viennese cafEs but much
       farther east, beyond even Budapest and Warsaw. As in 
       Ukraine, these remain places in flux, where the political 
       and cultural values of the East and West have stared each 
       other down for centuries. Rumiz gives a human face not 
       just to what the Cold War left behind but to the ancient 
       ties of empire and ethnicity that are still at the root of
       modern politics in flash-point areas such as this. 
520    Describes the author's journey through regions of Europe 
       east of the former Iron Curtain, detailing the ways in 
       which these regions both differ from Western European 
       cities and how they try to emulate their Western 
       neighbors.
