'Two young women plunging into post-war Bosnia like two Alices into Wonderland . . . smart, energetic, passionate, announcing a major talent.' - Aleksandar Hemon
Sara hasn't seen or heard from her childhood best-friend, Lejla, in years. She's comfortable with her life in Dublin, with her partner, their avocado plant, and their naturist neighbour. But when Lejla calls and demands she come home to Bosnia, Sara finds that she can't say no.
What begins as a road trip becomes a journey through the past, as the two women set off to find Armin, Lejla's brother who disappeared towards the end of the Bosnian War. Presumed dead by everyone else, only Lejla and Sara believed Armin was still alive.
Confronted with the limits of memory, Sara is forced to reconsider the things she thought she understood as a girl: the best friend she loved, the first experiences they shared, but also the social and religious lines that separated them, that brought them such different lives.
Translated into English by Lana Bastasic, Catch the Rabbit tells the story of how we place the ones we love on pedestals, and then wait for them to fall off, how loss marks us indelibly, and how the traumas of war echo down the years.

Girlhood & Coping with where you're from and where you THINK you belong
here honestly couldn’t have been a better time to read this. picture this - 26 hour bus trip from frankfurt (germany) to mostar (bosnia) cigarette stops and dirty toilets followed by 30 minute naps and being woken up by loud traditional Bosnian music. waking up between mountain view’s filled by beautiful lake water, looking over my shoulder and looking at the beautiful faces of my friends. pure fulfillment of the essence of this book. that alone got this reading experience to 5 stars, and even without that, i would’ve loved this book. the messiness of friendship and leaving home and trying to deal with the pain of it all.
