Más información sobre el libro

In 1999, the horrors of war unfold in Kosovo, just an hour's flight from Paris and London. Serbian forces under Slobodan Milosevic unleash a campaign of 'ethnic cleansing,' leaving behind devastation and despair. Adelaide surgeon Craig Jurisevic, inspired by his grandfather's experiences in a Nazi concentration camp, decides to honor his memory by using his surgical skills to help the victims. Leaving his family behind, he joins the International Medical Corps, embarking on a harrowing journey into the depths of human suffering and darkness. As he witnesses the plight of refugees and the brutality of war, Jurisevic grapples with his moral compass amidst the chaos. The stark images of despair and death flood into living rooms around the world, provoking feelings of impotence and disgust among viewers. In the midst of this turmoil, Jurisevic finds himself in a cave surrounded by the dead, reflecting on the nature of humanity and the horrors he encounters daily. In a poignant moment, he writes to his wife, expressing love and longing, striving to remind himself that he is more than a witness to horror. His struggle to maintain his humanity in the face of such brutality becomes a powerful testament to resilience and compassion amidst the darkest of times.
