Fools Rush In

De: Bill Carter

Narrado por: Alex Morf, Bill Carter

Now the basis for the major documentary film, Kiss the Future.

This "extraordinary human story" (Irish Times) is Bill Carter's deeply personal memoir of his experience in the war-torn city of Sarajevo. In 1991, the 26-year-old Carter joined up with a maverick aid organization to deliver food to orphanages across the city while dressed as a clown. He soon discovered the underground world of punk rock clubs, discos, and a thriving cultural scene within the besieged city where art and music were used as a defiant act against the war. It was this creative spirit that led Carter on a journey to draw attention to the war in Bosnia and inspire hope among its people by convincing the rock band U2 to beam the citizens of Sarajevo into their stadium concerts via satellite.

Fools Rush In is a memoir of witness that shines an indelible light on the people of Sarajevo and their deep belief in coexistence during the longest siege in modern history.

A WILD RIDE

Bill Carter has written a cinematic masterpiece.... from start to finish, you can actually visualize the novel as it careens from one adventure, many of them dangerous and heart-wrenching, to another.

Great story, full of hope and triumph, and well narrated. Highly recommended.

Very important for future generations to read ( listen)

I was waiting for the audio version for the very long time. So thankful it’s finally here. It is so real and honest story of what happened in the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Bill is one of the few “foreigners “who saw it for what it is and what happened. Glad he was not only brave to rush in while everyone else was running away but even brave ti expose the real third of the politics behind of it all.
I am deaply saddened to a personal side of the story.
