Publisher's summary

This book maybe answers the question of whether we can become a monster, or the monster already lies deep within us, waiting for the opportunity to come to the surface.

The action of this novel takes place in the region of ex-Yugoslavia as well as in prison and the court of The Hague Tribunal for war crimes. The main character is Gvozden Mishic. He is courageous, honest, hard-working, and above all, a highly honorable man.

What happens when such a man of incredible persistence and will power has his heartbroken and filled with hatred?

Genocide.

This book represents a transformation, or rather a deformation of an impressive and above all unique personality having countless qualities, among which the greatest is - an immense love for his family.

This quality is precisely his greatest fault. Love that he felt for his wife and daughter becomes an inexhaustible source of hatred that makes him commit deeds that give a new dimension and severity to the term “war crime”.

The severity that the listeners will undoubtedly feel in their hearts while listening to this book.

This book is nothing more than a profoundly emotional testimony of a tragedy of one people, carried on wings of hatred, hatred of those who once lived for love, who once fought for love.

Brutal

This is vaguely reminiscent of Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds in terms of the general plot, but wrapped in a tale of revenge with some not-so-subtle messaging about war. Every aspect of this story is brutal and tragic. I looked more into the Bosnian War after I finished reading, just to see how accurate the story is in terms of corruption and crimes against humanity. Turns out the looting, profiteering, rape, and torture were all common and systemized. While most characters are a little one-note and some of the writing is clearly lost in the English translation, this story does capture the horrors of the war through a protagonist losing his humanity and becoming the embodiment of the fallen country around him. It's shocking, visceral, and frank in its honesty.
