In the wake of Brexit and the rise of populist and nationalist movements across Europe, the continent is at a crossroads. The European Union, once seen as a beacon of hope and unity, is now facing existential challenges. In Truth Lies and the End of Europe, award-winning journalist and author Anne Applebaum takes us on a journey into the heart of this fractured continent, exploring the causes and consequences of the crisis that is threatening to tear it apart.

Applebaum argues that the rise of populism and nationalism is not simply a reaction to economic inequality or immigration, but also to a deep sense of disillusionment with the European project itself. She shows how the EU has failed to deliver on its promises of prosperity, security, and democracy, and how this has led to a loss of faith in the institutions of government and the rule of law.

Applebaum also examines the role of Russia in undermining European unity. She shows how the Kremlin has used propaganda and disinformation to sow division and mistrust among European nations, and how this has helped to fuel the rise of far-right and anti-EU movements.

Truth Lies and the End of Europe is a powerful and thought-provoking account of the challenges facing Europe today. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the forces that are threatening to tear the continent apart, and for anyone who believes in the future of a united Europe.
