History of two families from Podolia: the Modzelewski's and the Weydlich's against the background of the turbulent history of the Polish borderlands. Using the example of two families, the book shows the fate of thousands of Poles from the Eastern Borderlands from the beginning of the 19th century to the present. Written in an engaging, light-hearted manner, with humor and kind irony, based on authentic diaries, letters, and memoirs - it is a conveyance of deeply humanistic values and a treasury of extremely interesting information about people connected with Podolia.
