Praise for Poland
“Engrossing . . . a page-turner in the grand Michener tradition.”—The Washington Post
“A Michener epic is far more than a bedtime reader, it’s an experience. Poland is a monumental effort, a magnificent guide to a better understanding of the country’s tribulations.”—Chicago Tribune
“Stunning . . . an unmatched overview of Polish history . . . The families themselves come very much alive, and through them, Poland itself.”—USA Today
“A titanic documentary novel.”—The Wall Street Journal

However the book concentrates too much in the nazi period showing in detail the abuses of the regimen against polnisch and jude people. But miss important parts of the country reconstruction after 1918 (the name of Dmowiski).
A good historical novel about Poland

My biggest complaint is the delivery. The narrator sounds like a bizarre cross between Captain Kirk and a robotic Polish Lektor reading an Ikea instruction manual. Every. Single. Word. Is. Its. Own. Sentence. The staccato rhythm and constant, under-dramatic punctuation suck the life out of the prose and make the already rough Polish pronunciations even harder to endure.
Even more distracting is that the performance feels exactly like a "Polish Lektor"—that specific style of voice-over used in Poland for foreign films where one man with a flat, monotone voice reads every single line of dialogue. Having a 14th-century peasant girl, a 20th-century general, and a Nazi occupier all voiced with the exact same impassioned inflection made it impossible to stay immersed. It felt less like a professional performance and more like listening to a 30-hour live translation of a book I already loved.
Buyer Beware: If you aren’t used to the "Lektor" style or find William Shatner-esque pausing grating, you might want to stick to the physical book or Kindle version. The story is a classic, but this particular narrator makes the 30-hour journey feel like a much longer, very repetitive lecture.
Great Story, but the Narrator is a "Polish Lektor" in Starfleet Uniform
