"Told from the rare perspective of a Muslim woman in a multiethnic society, Munevera Hadzisehovic's autobiographical account reveals the profound impact of social and political changes in twentieth century Yugoslavia. Her personal history took shape amidst far-reaching changes in the world around her. From her 1930's upbringing in the multiethnic Muslim-majority Sandzak region to employment at a prestigious research institution in Belgrade in the 1980's, her autobiography blends a participant's informed observations with intensely personal experiences to produce a trove of informative insights into life in twentieth century Yugoslavia."--Robert Donia
