Fragments of History: The Essays Behind the Stories

By Amra Pajalic

Fragments of History: The Essays Behind the Stories delves into the hidden truths and haunting legacies of Srebrenica, unpacking the complex layers behind one of Europe's darkest modern tragedies. Drawing on deep research and personal insight, these essays explore the roots of genocide, the urban-rural divide in former Yugoslavia, and the strategic use of Islamophobia to dehumanise Bosniaks. They examine the erasure and resurgence of Muslim identity, the myth of interethnic harmony under Yugoslav socialism, and the role of women-as survivors, protestors, and preservers of memory. With clarity and conviction, this collection reveals the forces that shaped a nation's trauma and the voices that continue to demand justice.
