SARAJEVO ROSES IN JOHANNESBURG

Subtitle: War Memoir of a Peacekeeper Author: Anne Marie du Preez Bezdrob Publisher: Struik () ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good - Cover is a bit worn Binding: Softcover Pages: 389 Dimensions: 19.7 x 12.9 x 2.6 cm +++ by Anne Marie du Preez Bezdrob +++ For two years, in the midst of the conflict in Bosnia,  Anne Marie du Preez Bezdrob was a United Nations peacekeeper in the besieged city of Sarajevo. As a resident of the city, she was no partial observer, but became passionately involved in individual lives, sharing the Sarajevans' terrors and hard-won joys. Calling the mortar scars roses is symbolic of how Sarajevans faced the horror and privation of the war in Bosnia - with extraordinary courage, inventiveness and wry humor.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
