Croatian Literature

From the assassination that triggered World War I to the ethnic warfare in Serbia, Bosnia, and Croatia, the Balkans have been the crucible of the 20th century, the place where terrorism and genocide first became tools of policy. Chosen as one of the Best Books of the Year by the New York Times, and greeted with critical acclaim as "the most insightful and timely work on the Balkans to date" (The Boston Globe), Kaplan's prescient, enthralling, and often chilling political travelogue is already a modern classic.

Kya nije onakva kakvom je smatraju. Ona je djevojka koja je preživjela napuštanje jednog po jednog člana svoje obitelji. Nedugo za njima, nestao je i Kyin otac, a ona je, sa samo šest godina, ostala posve sama u trošnoj kolibi na rubu puste močvare.

In the earliest days of the world, before rivers found their beds and before mountains carried their familiar shapes, two ancient powers shaped the forces of nature. Perun ruled the sky with thunder in his hands. Veles moved through the earth and water with the ease of a serpent slipping between shadows. One stood for order. The other thrived in mystery. Together they kept the world in balance.

Sredisnja tema ove duboko filozofske i tankocutne price o malome princu je spas od samoce zahvaljujuci prijateljstvu. Mali princ je zapravo alter ego samoga pisca, koji racionalnom vidjenju svijeta ocima odraslih, njihovom ovladavanju svijetom pomocu brojki, izvodjenja dokaza te njihovoj logici suprotstavlja suosjecanje prema drugima, u pripovijesti pretoceno u parabolu o ruzi i lisici.
