Haikus and Photos: Slovakian Castles and Hamlets: Haikus and Photos, #9

By Michael A. Susko

The photographs for this work come from Eastern Europe, where the author's grandparents lived. For many years Slovakia was cut off from the West, behind the Iron Curtain. After the fall of the Soviet Union, the author located his family and was taken on tour by his cousins. An array of castles dot the land, and remnants of hamlets  survive where his ancestors lived. This book is an invitation for us to return to the "old country" and feel the energy of our origins.
