Sarajevo Stories

"Bosnia, was so unkind" d.o.

him loving her was a big careless mistake [italics intended]

This book is the first in a trilogy on the effects of 20th century wars on the children and grandchildren of participants. In this case the background is the break-up of former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. Subsequent books focus on the two World Wars. When journalist Mike and his wife Sara decide to foster a 12-year-old Bosnian refugee, they have no premonition of the far-reaching consequences. Jasminka evolves from a traumatised child of the bitter ethnic conflicts of besieged Sarajevo into Minkie, an English schoolgirl-with-a-difference in a village in Middle England. She also becomes the daughter Mike has always wanted and Sara cannot have, and one of the excuses for Sara to resume an old affair. Mike’s assignments continue to take him to Bosnia and Serbia and he finds himself emotionally drawn into the conflict for reasons he could never have imagined and which have a profound effect on the deepening rift at home. As shifting international tensions are about to change the world forever, Minkie returns to Sarajevo to seek her roots and decide her future, just as Mike and Sara must decide on theirs in the early days of September 2001.

Emina Zahirovic, a Bosnian girl who came with her family from America to visit for the summer, decides to go out with her other Bosnian friends in Sarajevo. Little did she know, these 2 weeks in Sarajevo, are going to change this entire summer. Maybe, her entire life. This story goes a bit slow, so if you don't like those types of stories don't read. Trust me though, it gets real good.

Fragments of hope flicker across the desolated streets of Sarajevo... The story was initially written for my english coursework, but I ended up liking it a lot hence posted it. Might continue with it, story revolves around the morning after chaos and war during the Siege of Sarajevo.

Nella misteriosa giostra della vita due ragazzi accidentalmente si incontrano e la loro esistenza apparentemente normale finirà per cambiare completamente alla scoperta di un passato doloroso e al tempo stesso affascinante.

The book tells a true story of how Sarajevo formed as a small town and became one of the most valuable cities in Europe through centuries of rise, fall and re-rise! From the 15th century Ottoman architecture all the way to the present-day metropolis in the Balkans.

This is a found poem from the novel The Cellist of Sarajevo, by Steven Galloway, that I had to write for english.

When he read the message from his friend, Matthew felt both excited and very nervous. Ajdin had asked him to pack his bags because he was preparing a crazy trip. So, I packed my bags and went on an unknown flight with Ajdin. When we landed it was weird because I had never seen so many mountains and finally as a said that Ajdin told me where we were. We are in Bosnia and Herzegovina a beautiful country of people with warming hearts said Ajdin. So, after we landed, Ajdin told me we are going to be here for a week so he can show me his home country, and I was excited because I have never been to Bosnia nor have, I really heard about this pretty Land. So, for a week we have been walking through pretty streets in Bosnia we already went to Mostar, Sarajevo, Bihac, Banjaluka, Zenica, Zavidovići and so many of them because we wanted to see everything in This country. What i found fun was eating tasty Bosnian Dishes that were so tasty like Cevapi, Burek and Sirnica and so many more but what I felt when I was in Bosnia I think nobody can explain this feeling I asked Ajdin about this feeling but he said the same thing that everybody that comes feels heartwarming and at home and a feeling that nobody can understand without actually feeling it. But sadly, a week went so fast that in a day we already must go back so last day we said our goodbyes to new people that we met and to a dog that was following us for few days, what I also saw was how people were really heartwarming and nice in this country which I hadn't expected. So, the next day we went on our flight back to Los Angeles and watched as we fled away from Bosnia.

I ll be posting my vector art in this book!

A collection of poems

I wanted to compile all of the short stories I'd been working on for some time into one anthology.

Elias refuses to let another city die. Every city is a tale of blood, sweat, tears, work, hope, dreams, and people. People who created this world, with soil-caked fingers and soot-stained faces, or with pristine dresses and shirts. Every city has a story. He's not going to let that disappear.
