Seenteen stoires

Complied and translated by Will Firth 

What all these brilliant writers have in common - apart from being female - is that they do not make a living from writing and may never be able to, and the awareness of this situation encourages a frank and uncompromising approach. Apart from often being entertaining, the stories contain a wealth of insights into life in the turbulent and patriarchal region of ex-Yugoslavia, which also brings forth strong and spirited women. Here is a collection which brings togther the talent of such authors and opens up the region to readers in English in a unique way.
