Falling into Place: A Story of Love, Poland, and the Making of a Travel Writer Swick Thomas
Working as a feature writer in 1976, Thomas Swick falls in love with a visiting Polish student named Haina and soon moves with her to Warsaw. He declines an invitation to be a Polish informer, sees John Paul II embolden the masses on his first trip back to his homeland since becoming pope, witnesses the rise of Solidarity and the imposition of martial law in Poland, and walks with thousands of Poles on the pilgrimage to Częstochowa, an annual religious rite that blossoms into a nine-day protest march. The next decade sees Thomas living in Poland, Greece, and New York.
One month later, he lands his dream job as a travel writer. In 1989, he watches Hania vote in her country's first free elections since pre-war independence. Falling into Place is the personal story of a young man's discovery of the world and his development as a travel writer.
It is also a love story, as he and Hania
