Timothy Garton Ash zählt zu den wichtigsten Chronisten der europäischen Revolution von 1989. Schon Jahre zuvor war er in den Metropolen Mitteleuropas unterwegs und traf sich mit Dissidenten wie Lech Walesa und Václav Havel. Aus seinen Reportagen erfuhr der Westen, wie der Osten in Bewegung geriet. Und bereits im Herbst 1990 legte Garton Ash ein wichtiges Buch über diese Epochenwende vor: "Ein Jahrhundert wird abgewählt". 30 Jahre später hat Garton Ash noch einmal die Länder des ehemaligen Ostblocks besucht, um zu erkunden, was aus den damaligen Hoffnungen und Visionen geworden ist. Der Bericht seiner Reise vervollständigt die Neuausgabe dieses Klassikers der Zeitgeschichte.
