Write to learn, read to evolve. Born into a clan of transitional characters, dyed-in-the-wool interculturalist Johannes Chudoba invites readers to recognize the life lessons of the pre- and postwar generations. Following a frenzy of high-intensity challenges in conflict and transition countries for three decades, Chudoba stepped back and slowed down to spend time with his mother in the final months of her life, and to capture the essence of intergenerational learning in his family.
Coming of age in Central Europe when the Berlin Wall and the Iron Curtain collapsed, with the promise of a new era beyond the Cold War, Chudoba tells the story of his parents growing up in the aftermath of WWII. Soon after Austria regained its independent statehood in 1955, both Chudoba's mother and father moved beyond a subdued existence as dependents in their parental homes.
Sovereignty invites readers to uncover the transitional character in themselves, exploring how each one of us can free our children from the burden of patterns in our lineage that we want and need to overcome.
