Inspired by an actual event, a powerful story told though the lives of three disparate characters. Excellent storytelling.

Steven Galloway writes a novel based on actual events and stories from people who lived through the Siege of Sarajevo in the 1990s. I read this, in part, to get a sense for what those in other culture wars are experiencing even as I write this. That the human spirit can endure is amazing. This isn’t the easiest reading, but I’m glad I read it. Galloway really takes you into the heart of his characters.
