Sarajevo: a Bosnian Kaleidoscope

"Markowitz dispels widely held myths that Sarajevo has become a purely Muslim city. . . . The author's many insights into Sarajevo and its kaleidoscope of inhabitants are welcome and valuable."Slavic Review "A warm and well-written portrait of Sarajevo during its first post-war decade."--Journal of the Royal Anthropological institute "Markowitz has succeeded in combining a solid work of scholarship with a personal take on her subject which she explores in a very thorough and balanced way. This is a rich contribution to the scholarship on the issue of identify in present-day Bosnia & Hercegovina and deserves a wide audience, appealing to both the academic and general reader."--Europe-Asia Studies "A stunningly fresh and invigorating analysis. Markowitz's inspired approach offers multiple possibilities for envisioning the city and for recasting Bosnian identity."--Michael Herzfeld, author of Evicted from Eternity: The Restructuring of Modern Rome "Recommended."--Choice
