pickExcellent work. If you want a journalists take on both the Yugoslav civil war and (to a much lesser extent) Chechnya, this is the one. He looks at the incalculable cost of war on everyone while tying the horrors to particular places and times. In the vein of Herrs “Dispatches “.
Anthony Loyd became an international correspondent & traveled to ex-Yugoslavia in the midst of war in 1993 & saw the very worst, & best, of humanity. My uncle was there as a journalist as well, & gave me this book when I was older, with the note, "This may make my world a little easier to understand." It didn't, but I'm grateful he shared it with me. I traveled to Bosnia, Croatia, & Serbia years later. #war #ReadingResolutions
pickFor #recommendsday the first of three memoirs about the Bosnian War I would implore everyone to read. (I'll post the others later). This one also deals slightly with the author's drug addiction which was heightened due to the effect of being a war correspondent during the Bosnian War.
