While world attention was focused on BucharestDervla Murphy spent eight months in Transylvania - and beyond - sharing the everyday lives of ordinary Rumanians.Her book describes a journey on two levels - wandering through the remotest corners of the Carpathianson foot or by bicycleand into the often daunting mental terrain of a post-Communist society where nothing was quite what it seemed.Onher arrival soon after the revolution she found a people both exhilarated and bewildered; unlike other East Europeansthe Rumanians had had no warning that they were about to be liberated.During her second journey in 1991 shenoticed a profound change in the national mood. Dervla was overwhelmed by the warmth of the hospitality she received.In urban blocssmall towns and traditional villages she stayed with teachers factory-workerswritersfarmersprofessorsengineersvetsarmy officers shepherdsstudents and doctors.As her friends revealed their hopesfears and prejudices Dervla gained some unexpected insightsinto one of Europe's least European countries. 'Transylvania and Beyond' is Dervla at her best.
