"In the fall of 1990... the Cold War was on its last legs. Within the year, it would formally end, with the wholly unexpected dissolution not just of the conflict between the Soviet Union and the United States but of the Soviet Union itself. The abruptness of the Union's disintegration left the world dumbfounded." Such is the state of affairs, described in Jonathan Schell's introduction, that form one of the themes of Writing in Time.
Schell wrote weekly columns in Newsday (and its sister newspaper, New York Newsday) from 1990 through 1996. This book examines the world-shaking events he covered during those years.
