Sarajevo self-portrait - Leslie Fratkin

Introduction by Tom Gjelten with images and texts by nine Bosnian photographers Created in the aftermath of war, in ruined darkrooms without electricity or running water, the photographs in this book are not only proof of the destruction and suffering of this once-beautiful country but a salute to its indomitable spirit, offering an authentic view of Bosnia through the eyes of those living inside it. '[These] individual tales, riveting and sometimes droll, contain the essence of the human will to resist. This is a wonderful book' - Roy Gutman
