Evan McGilvray
Evan McGilvray has written a number of books on Poland as well as biographies. He is well versed in Poland and Polish society and away from the usual Krakow and Warsaw ‘hothouses’ of middle-class elites who actually know little about their compatriots. Evan McGilvray is now in the process of following up this work with another provisionally entitled ‘How to Explain Stupid – or Western Democracy Today’. Evan McGilvray was born in Winchester in 1961 and is a graduate of the School of Slavonic and East European Studies at UCL. He lived in Poland between 1991 and 1994 and visits often.
