The Author, raised in a non-practicing Jewish family, is 12 years old when the Germans occupied former Yugoslavia. His family hides in a small village and eventually joins Tito's guerrilla. At 14 years of age he is appointed as a military courier, given an outdated Italian gun, and sent to roam alone through mountains, forests, and small villages of Croatia. After the war, just when things start to look better, his father breaks down under the Communist pressure and the author is forced to take refuge again. |

This is a story of how extraordinary events can bring out the worst and the best in ordinary people. How the author, to keep himself sane in the turmoil, learns how to see the funny side of things, to understand what makes people tick, to keep his eyes open, and when the going gets really rough - to recite poetry. This is also a story of two brothers who, facing the same difficulties, became very different adults and how a son unwittingly repeated some of his fathers history. |
