This is such a well-written book it is as if the author was there. The 3 year siege of Sarajevo has been compressed into one month to tell the story of daily life in the middle of a war zone. It describes beautifully the absolute terror, resignation and sometimes normality of living through a constant bombardment and what it can do to the human psyche. I felt as if I lived through it too. One can imagine this is what so many of the refugees coming here have experienced.
