As a senior foreign correspondent for "The Times" of London, Janine
di Giovanni was a firsthand witness to the brutal and protracted
break-up of Yugoslavia. With unflinching sensitivity, Madness
Visible" "follows the arc of the wars in the Balkans through the
experience of those caught up in them: soldiers numbed by the
atrocities they commit, women driven to despair by their life in
paramilitary rape camps, civilians (di Giovanni among them) caught
in bombing raids of uncertain origin, babies murdered in
hate-induced rage.
Di Giovanni's searing memoir examines the turmoil of the Balkans in
acute detail, and uncovers the motives of the leaders who created
hell on earth; it raises challenging questions about ethnic
conflict and the responsibilities of foreign governments in times
of mass murder. Perceptive and compelling, this unique work of
reportage from the physical and psychological front lines makes the
madness of war wholly visible.
