In late 1995 and early 1996, cartoonist/reporter Joe Sacco
travelled four times to Gorazde, a UN-designated safe area during
the Bosnian War, which had teetered on the brink of obliteration
for three and a half years. Still surrounded by Bosnian Serb
forces, the mainly Muslim people of Gorazde had endured heavy
attacks and severe privation to hang on to their town while the
rest of Eastern Bosnia was brutally 'cleansed' of its non-Serb
population. But as much as Safe Area Gorazde is an account of a
terrible siege, it presents a snapshot of people who were slowly
letting themselves believe that a war was ending and that they had
survived. Since it was first published in 2000, Safe Area Gorazde
has been recognized as one of the absolute classics of graphic
non-fiction. We are delighted to publish it in the UK for the first
time, to stand beside Joe Sacco's other books on the Cape list -
Palestine, The Fixer and Notes from a Defeatist.
