Mama Leone by Miljenko Jergovic

Mama Leone is a moving patchwork of a childhood devastated by war. Prize-winning author and poet Miljenko Jergovic presents his masterfully crafted novel set in Yugoslavia which draws the reader into a boy's episodic, profoundly personal recounting of his war-torn homeland and childhood. Dazzling, rhapsodic, and above all compassionate, these linked stories, deeply rooted in place and history, break down stereotypes and humanise a complex cultural conflict.
