The book An Orange from Mount Trebević: A Remembrance of Events from Besieged Sarajevo 1992-1996 by Ezudin Kurtović is a fascinating document, message, and lesson for anyone who wishes to delve deeper into questions of the meaning of ethos and cosmos, particularly human existence, suffering, pain, longing, love, fear, happiness, faith, and hope ... We are entirely confident that no reader, regardless of the “world” they come from, will be left indifferent.
Excerpt from a review by Professor Amir Pušina
University of Sarajevo – Faculty of Philosophy
Ezudin Kurtović is an electrical engineer living and working in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. He was almost 23 years old when his homeland was invaded in 1992, and its capital city placed under a nearly four-year attack.
Combining his personal diary entries with original newspaper articles from that period, this book guides the reader through the experience of living in a city that, thanks to the incredible strength and bravery of its defenders, endured one of the longest sieges in modern history.
