Description

Sarajevo is a place forever linked to siege, survival, and horror. In the context of the Bosnian war in the early 90’s, the city became a network of bullets, cultural projects, denied destinations, and encouraging gestures. Armada was there and tells the reader through precise and lyrical prose the complexity of the conflict. He is accompanied by two great connoisseurs of the former Yugoslavia as well as the prestigious journalist Gervasio Sanchez.
