Recenzii

'Tomasevic happened to be an eyewitness of some major events in post-war Yugoslav history and to know personally many remarkable people...It should be read as a wonderfully balanced account, sensitive and sensible at the same time, of how history was experienced by people who were unreservedly involved in the successive political regimes (his father to royal, and he himself to communist Yugoslavia), but did not belong to the powerful elite of decision- makers.' European History Quarterly "'Amid the many books published about former Yugoslavia over the past fifteen years, this one stands out -- a moving memoir that reads like an enthralling historical novel. Toma'evic's book opens a unique window into a lost world of the Balkans in the twentieth century.' -- Dejan Djokic, author, Elusive Compromise: A History of Inter-War Yugoslavia (Columbia University Press)
