"In a world facing the worst refugee crisis in history, this is an important and timely book."-- John Zaritsky, Oscar-winning filmmaker
"An epic tale. ... Moving beyond words."-- Roy Gutman, Pulitzer Prize winner and Crimes of War Project chairman
"A universal human story ... and an invaluable historical source."-- Robert Donia, author of Sarajevo: A Biography
"Sanja Kulenovic's memoir captures courage and resilience ... and shines a light on immigration crises everywhere."-- Foreword Reviews
In 1992, Bosnian honeymooners in Southern California are suddenly stranded and homeless when their native Yugoslavia erupts into civil war. The stunned refugees must scrape together a new life in America with sporadic letters their sole, tenuous link to besieged family and loved ones back in Sarajevo.
Sanja Kulenovic shares those precious letters--often written in darkness as bombs fell and gunfire rang out--to vividly capture the suffering her family and other Sarajevans endured through almost four years of daily bombardments, the perpetual threat of sniper fire, and three frozen, foodless winters.
The Siege of Sarajevo searingly illustrates the human toll of war and the highly personal consequences of what often are dismissed as faraway conflicts. Highlighting the resilience and determination of immigrants, Kulenovic's powerful story reminds us all that we are stronger than we've ever imagined.
