Bolla by Pajtim Statovci
'Devastating in the most beautiful ways.' Torrey Peters 'Superb . . . Statovci is a major talent.' New York Times Book Review It is April 1995. Kosovo is a country on the cusp of a dreadful war. Arsim in twenty-two, newly married, cautious - an Albanian trying to keep his head down and finish his studies in an atmosphere of creeping threat. Until he encounters Milos, a Serb, and begins a life in secret. 'A pitch perfect excavation of the vandalism of war, the wounds of love and the limits of the human soul.'
