Safe Area Gorazde Hc - STAR11624by Joe Sacco, In 1996, Joe Sacco won the American Book Award for his groundbreaking work Palestine, a first-person journalistic account of the situation in the occupied territories, told in comics form. Gorazde is the long-awaited follow up to Palestine, a 240-page look at war in the former Yugoslavia. Sacco spent five months in Bosnia in 1996, immersing himself in the human side of life during wartime, researching stories that are rarely found in conventional news coverage. The book focuses on the Muslim-held enclave of Gorazde, which was besieged by Bosnian Serbs during the war. Sacco lived for a month in Gorazde, entering before the Muslims trapped inside had access to the outside world, electricity, or running water. Gorazde is Sacco's magnum opus, and with it he is poised to become one of America's most noted journalists. The book features an introduction by Christopher Hitchens, political columnist for The Nation and Vanity Fair. Mature Readers.
