Autorenporträt
Anica Letic grew up in post WWII Yugoslavia when there was a total disregard for family life and unilateral indoctrination of children at schools. The new political agenda was in the forefront, rebuilding the country at any cost, instituting new laws and ruining traditional customs. Personal lives did not matter and everybody was scrutinized. Educated in classical languages, literature and history she developed a sense and need to understand human nature. This led her to further study human behaviour and she graduated with BA degree in psychology. After immigrating to Canada she worked as a teacher in public and private schools, as well as supporting the Serbian Heritage Program teaching language and literature. Once Upon a Time..., retold Serbian folk stories, was her first published book.
