Synopsis
Paul Kriwaczek was born in Vienna in 1937. At the age of two he fled Vienna and the Nazi threat with his parents, eventually arriving in England. After qualifying as a dental surgeon in 1962 and traveling extensively in Asia and Africa–including a two-year stint as the only European dentist in Kabul–he joined the BBC as a specialist in Central and South Asian affairs, and then BBC Television as a producer. He took up writing full-time in the 1990s. He lives in London.
Reviews
On May 14 2022, a reader said:
This is not only an informed search for the origins of Zarathustrianism but it contains much information concerning all manner of things, for instance the origins of names etc... The author has experienced first-hand what he writes about and his style is entertaining and immensely readable. It filled in many gaps in my knowledge not just concerning Zarathustra but other religions and more!
