From the Eagle's Nest to the Lion's Den (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781967820306)

"From the Eagle's Nest to the Lion's Den" is, without a doubt, an incredibly evocative and unique autobiography and memoir, covering the author's journey from a country in sociopolitical turmoil, to travelling the world. From the very beginning the readers get the insight on how life was like in a socialist Poland, with the system controlling its people and the narratives through propagandas.

With moving to the UK, we experience the author's world changing, as she starts her journey of being exposed to new cultures, languages, traditions, people and religions. As audience, we find ourselves completely engrossed, as the author steps onto her dreamland and finds freedom in London. The author struggles in her pursuit of high quality education from the universities in England, as she fights her way through all obstacles to fulfill her dreams.

This book is more than a simple mixture of adventure and biography. It also brings in the idea of a travelogue which makes the central themes of the book for more interesting than one might believe it to be. The great details of the landmarks and sites in England, from Trafalgar Square in Londinium, the audience gets to experience and visualise all these tourism spots that are filled with adventure and history.

As we continue to read the author's journey from her marriage and having her dearest children, to her travelling the world with her family, we find ourselves getting lost in the life of a person who lives life to the fullest and allows herself to be exposed to different perspectives and outlooks on life.
