Nisu zaboravljeni: Grad heroja

The book Nisu zaboravljeni – Grad heroja (Not Forgotten – City of Heroes) is a commemorative, documentary work by author Tanja Belobrajdić—a defender of Vukovar and a writer—dedicated to preserving the memory of the Croatian defenders and civilians who lost their lives or remain missing following the defense of Vukovar in 1991. Born of years of research and conversations with families, fellow fighters, and survivors, the book presents a series of moving and detailed biographical sketches. The author does not portray the victims merely through dry historical data or statistics; instead, she brings the reader closer to their personalities, dreams, family lives, and immense courage during the darkest moments of the city's siege. Each story serves as an enduring monument to an individual who wove their life into the fabric of Croatia's freedom. The work is distinguished by profound reverence, authenticity, and documentary precision, lending it significant historiographical and emotional value. Nisu zaboravljeni – Grad heroja represents a vital contribution to Croatia's culture of remembrance, ensuring that the names and deeds of the martyrs of Vukovar remain permanently etched in the consciousness of future generations.
