"""Schneider writes in a lively and engaging style, which creates a sense of empathy with the people she describes and a consequent appreciation of their dilemmas and strategies in a difficult situation. That evocation of empathy through detail is precisely what is missing in most studies of Eastern Europe, but Schneider puts us in the Zuywiecers' shoes, which allows us to see the changes in Eastern Europe in a new light."""
