"Zagreb's noirish underbelly comes from a new nation familiar with both war and war crimes. Mr. SrSen's handpicked selections are anything but ordinary." - New York Journal of Books Eastern European history is filled with noir-ish and harrowing tales, and Zagreb, the capital city of Croatia, certainly has its fill. Layers of trauma from its war years, soccer hooliganism, and a shadowy Balkan underground all contribute to the city's transient and inconstant character. Editor Ivan SrSen has curated a diverse, powerful, and dramatic group of stories that offer tremendous insight into the perspectives of contemporary Croatians. Zagreb Noir features translated stories by: Ivan Vidic, Josip Novakovich, Andrea Zigic-Dolenec, Robert PeriSic, Mima Simic, Pero Kvesic, Nada GaSic, Zoran Pilic, Ruzica GaSperov, Darko MiloSic, Nora Verde, Ivan SrSen, Neven USumovic, and Darko Macan. "Zagreb, Croatia-its culture and its touchstones-will be terra incognita for many U.S. readers... Notable is Nora Verde's 'She-Warrior,' in which a young woman's carefully planned anarchist activities are smacked down by a triple helping of reality." - Publishers Weekly "The stories shed light on a sickness that stirs within society's boundaries. Readers will easily glean that this sickness is not exclusive to Zagreb. SrSen reveals the ugly truth about human nature that burrows under the surface in war-torn countries." - The Examiner (San Francisco)
