Null and Void: Poland: Case Study on Comparative Imperialism traces the history of Poland from the 1930s to the 1950s, dealing with the Nazi era and focusing especially on the Stalinist period. The contemporary relevance of the issues Poland faced is relayed through the vivid true story of a Polish freedom fighter, Halina. Null and Void intertwines non-fiction narrative and historical analysis. Halina's story illustrates and ties together the analysis. Flashes forward to Halina's life today integrate the history of WWII Poland with present-day America, shedding important light on the relevance of Halina's experience to our lives today.
