In a voice both innocent and wise, Zlata Filipovic's diary has awakened the world's conscience. At thirteen, she began her diary just before her eleventh birthday, when Sarajevo was peaceful, and her life was carefree. Her early entries reflect her friendships, skiing, family, school, and her interest in the Madonna Fan Club. However, everything changes when she sees bombs falling on Dubrovnik. Initially unable to imagine such violence in her own city, she soon faces the harsh reality as war descends upon Sarajevo. The tone of her diary shifts dramatically, marked by chilling entries filled with words like "SLAUGHTERHOUSE! MASSACRE! HORROR!" As Zlata's world shrinks due to the violence, she becomes confined to her family's apartment, spending nights in a neighbor's cellar as shells rain down. The war disrupts her life—school is no longer an option, and basic necessities like water and electricity become scarce. The conflict takes a toll on her loved ones, visibly aging her parents and injuring friends. In moments of despair, she reflects, "War has nothing to do with humanity." Despite these challenges, Zlata exhibits remarkable courage, striving to preserve her former life by studying piano, reading, and celebrating special occasions, all chronicled in her extraordinary diary.
