The book was written in the 1950s in Montgeron, and was completed in Paris in 1958. It is a study on Eastern Europe based on the author's biography, it is a kind of intellectual autobiography dealing with the great problems of the epoch. In the introduction, the author explains that this is an attempt to tell other Europeans what it means to be Eastern European.

Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz described the essay with the epithet "Satan's book", while Maria Dąbrowska was delighted with it: "This is Milosz's archbook. The equivalent of Pan Tadeusz in our contemporary literature is Milosz's Family Europe ”.
