The Bridge on the Drina; Ivo Andric
From a Nobel prize winner, this is a fictional, yet truthful,
history of the bridge at Visegrad which stood for centuries. The
tensions between the residents of Bosnia and Herzegovina become
apparent. From the Turkish occupation to the Austro-Hungarian
Empire, the factions intertwine throughout the history of the town
and the bridge. Although told, or translated, in a slow, laconic
style, the writing was wonderful. The individual stories were well
told and kept the history of the bridge moving forward. After
reading it, I felt that I understood this part of the world better
-- and that I had a better perspective on my ancestors (Radenovic or
Ragenovich) from Montenegro who emigrated to the US in the 19th
century |
