Sarajevo, July 2008. Many in the former Jugoslavia welcome and rejoice at the news of the arrest of Radovan Karadzic. Life in Bosnia has gradually returned to normal since the end of the conflict. However, one woman, Ivana, is tormented by painful memories of the war years and finds it difficult to join the jubilation.

“Snipers Alley” and all that the Balkan War entailed is bad enough but the incident haunting Ivana is an incident in 1993 and a choice she had to make. It takes all her courage to dare to follow her instincts and go on the road to Europe in search of her past and all that entails.

What is it that haunts Ivana?  I’m not going to tell you. You need to get this book and see the stylish art that, in many pages carries no text but the art alone tells you everything.  Its tragic, sad –bitter-sweet in a way.  A classic with a question mark ending.
