5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling
The first-person story told by one of the few lucky ones who got out of hell (or Srebrenica for that matter, the same thing) is a page-turner for people who really want to know what was life back then.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time
This book is poorly structured with a heavy bias on Bosnian emotion and also has factual concerns about most events he "witnessed" or "heard". Alot of his stories I believe are more rumour mill stuff than fact, given he was 17 at the time I wouldn't be surprised.

His hatred of serbs is plain to see and this inevitably impairs the quality of the book. He...

This review is from: Postcards from the Grave (Paperback)
This book is poorly structured with a heavy bias on Bosnian emotion and also has factual concerns about most events he "witnessed" or "heard". Alot of his stories I believe are more rumour mill stuff than fact, given he was 17 at the time I wouldn't be surprised.

His hatred of serbs is plain to see and this inevitably impairs the quality of the book. He knows much more than he is willing to tell but only wants to harp over how good and innocent the Bosnians were whilst it was the serbs who did all the butchering. It is a book written from a narrow and selective memory and should be taken lighlty if only the subject matter wasn't so serious.

Throw it away. A much better read (with facts) is Honig and Both's Srebrenica:Record of a war crime.
