The Great Return

Zuzana Palovic

  • 5
In the beginning of the 21st century, Europe opened its borders to the countries from behind the Iron Curtain. Since then, over 100 million citizens, including Slovaks gained the freedom to move West without a visa. Now, a decade after the East-West exodus, our pioneers are returning home.

Telling the stories of international Slovaks who left, learned and returned, 58 voices including government, business and society share their views on the transformation of a nation. The 59th voice is that of the author, who reveals a personal tale of loss, lessons and reconnection through a rite of passage shared by millions of people across the planet.

Time-travellers to culture-shifters, Slovakia’s lost daughters and sons come home, proving that return is not just a possibility, but an opportunity.

The Great Return

Recenzia

  • 5 /5
  • The Great Return

For 400 years, people from Europe have come to America to seek opportunity. From Slovakia, people have become U.S. citizens since 1868. This story is well known. Zuzana Pavlovic has captured what may a new story in the tide of history, one that began in 1989 and 1993 and accelerated since 2004. It is inspirational to hear how people are returning to their homeland to make Slovakia a better place.
