Lawrence Weschler, Calamities of Exile (University of Chicago Press, 1998; 1999) A collection of three gripping, nuanced novella-length chronicles of three exiles — South African author Breyten Breytenbach, Iraqi author Kanan Makiya, and Czech activist Jan Karan — that probe the moral and personal risks of opposing totalitarianism. Lance Gould of The New York Times Book Review: "His thorough accounting of the men's covert operations, assumed identities and strained relationships with fathers, wives and colleagues creates a disturbing triptych of the perils of totalitarianism."
