Ekaterina Schulmann, spokesperson for the 2022 judges, said: “Mary Sarotte’s book presents an in-depth documentation and compelling narrative of East-West diplomacy and relationships. The story that she tells is at once historically significant and uncomfortably near. In 2022, it sometimes reads like one of those works that describe the events preceding World War I. Sarotte bravely underlines possible key historical figures and moments when history might have evolved towards another reality. The significance of Sarotte’s voice and her careful analysis gives us, readers, an opportunity to at least begin to understand how we got to where we find ourselves now.“
