    This was one of the most depressing, gut-wrenching books I’ve ever read. I’ve read a number of books about the Balkans and there is always so much sadness and pain to write about. Maas writes about the war in Bosnia in the early 90s because he was there as a reporter for The Washington Post. Maas doesn’t try to be objective. He writes what he saw. He tries to make sense of it but can’t. It’s an excellent book.
