No Roof in Bosnia, by Els de Groen

Got some travel and history books on Bosnia and started going through them but nothing sticks to and captivates the mind quite like a story! Got through this book in three sit-downs whereas the others I can imagine I'll be going through for a few more weeks at least :-\ I suspect the author has a background in education and this book is targeted at teenagers, and at times it looked as though it was about to go down a feminist or atheist or anti-religion path but the author did well I think to maintain neutrality and blend in a mix of characters from various backgrounds to present an introduction of the recent tragedy that befell Bosnia.
