"This mosaic of memories comes together in a fascinating, kaleidoscopic way, to tell the story of the besieged generadon. I applaud Mr Halilovic's efforts to ensure that we do notlbrget this period of recent European history."
Doris Pack, Chairman of the European Culture Committee
"'War Childhood\s a remarkable work. Harrowing and heartening in equal measure, it is a reminder that, even in the direst of circumstances, children will find small, sustaining joys. With this compendium, Halilovic has made a gripping, humane, and invaluable contribution to the field of peace and conflict studies."
Dan Sheehan, author of "Restless Souls "
"The testimonies, memories, snippets, drawings and photographs collected in War Childhood transport us to a world no child should ever experience. It is a place of lost innocence, tragedy and pain; but this book is also a testament to the resilience, humour, imagination and play that—despite the horror of war trying to quash it—still manages to shine."
Zlata Filipovic, author of "Zlata's Diary "
"The fighting in Bosnia ended more than 20 years ago, but these messages, and this book, are timeless in their wisdom and passion and, occasionally, their wry. humor. What they say— what this book says—is precious and smart and should be read by everyone."
Peter Maass, author of "Love Thy Neighbor: A Story of War"
"Jasminko Halilovic's War Childhood is not only a compendium of the most intimate details of one of the 20"" century's greatest tragedies, but a crucial testament to the indomitability of life."
Téa Obreht, author of "The Tiger's Wife " Vissza
