eBook
Surviving the Bosnian Genocide
2011
Overview
In July 1995, the Army of the Serbian Republic killed some 8,000
Bosnian men and boys in and around the town of Srebrenica-the
largest mass murder in Europe since World War II. Surviving the
Bosnian Genocide is based on the testimonies of 60 female survivors
of the massacre who were interviewed by Dutch historian Selma
Leydesdorff. The women, many of whom still live in refugee camps,
talk about their lives before the Bosnian war, the events of the
massacre, and the ways they have tried to cope with their fate.
Though fragmented by trauma, the women tell of life and survival
under extreme conditions, while recalling a time before the war
when Muslims, Croats, and Serbs lived together peaceably. By giving
them a voice, this book looks beyond the rapes, murders, and
atrocities of that dark time to show the agency of these women
during and after the war and their fight to uncover the truth of
what happened at Srebrenica and why.
