A thoughtful, well-informed and, in places, entertaining book by a British journalist who visited Serbia in 1995 and tried to assess the political and social mood there in relation to the war in Bosnia. Telling interviews (with propagandists, refugees from Knin, old Communists, intellectuals and others) alternate with accounts of city life, gangsterism, ‘turbo-folk' and Seselj's party. Morgan comments shrewdly on the role of the media and on the psychological strategies adopted by Serbs to deal with what they knew, and what they did not want to know, about the Bosnian war
