Gloria Lujanović

Gloria Lujanović wrote about the suffering of Croats in Central Bosnia as a young journalist. In the book Heart of the Country, the author speaks from a very personal perspective about the events that marked the lives of the generation that was just born

With this intimate essay-poetic dedication to victims and survivors, Gloria Lujanović gave a voice to those who were forgotten and hushed up by everyone.

"The sentence with which Glorija Lujanović begins her poignant book Heart of the Country ("In my family, time was divided into before and after the war"), is the best description of a mentality characteristic of Bosnia and Herzegovina as a whole, which the author emphasizes already in the next sentence. , which is both deep and superficial, Glorija Lujanović gives a broader picture of an era, with the help of which it is partially possible to detect the causes of today's almost pre-apocalyptic state in the world a kind of uncompromising and self-imposed redemption towards those who suffered (and still suffer) more than the author herself and her family.And for that you have to be infinitely empathetic and able to empathize with the sufferings of others, which is an extremely rare phenomenon today. from the foreword by Josip Mlakić
