En savoir plus sur le livre

In a voice both innocent and wise, Zlata Filipovic's diary has awakened the world's conscience. At thirteen, Zlata began her diary just before her eleventh birthday, capturing her life as a bright, carefree girl in peaceful Sarajevo. Her early entries reflect her friendships, family, school, and even her desire to join the Madonna Fan Club. However, her perspective shifts dramatically when she witnesses the bombing of Dubrovnik on television. Initially unable to fathom such violence in her own city, Zlata's tone changes as war descends upon Sarajevo. She begins an entry to "Dear Mimmy," her dead goldfish, with the harrowing words: "SLAUGHTERHOUSE! MASSACRE! HORROR! CRIMES! BLOOD! SCREAMS! DESPAIR!" The violence confines her to her family's apartment, forcing her to seek refuge in a neighbor's cellar as shells rain down. The dangers of war invade her life, leading to the closure of schools, shortages of water and electricity, and the loss of friends. Zlata poignantly states, "War has nothing to do with humanity. War is something inhuman." Despite the overwhelming despair, she displays remarkable courage and clarity, striving to preserve her former life through music, reading, and celebrating special occasions, all documented in her extraordinary diary.
