Rejuvenation: The Beauty and Beastliness of the Balkans

Eve has just returned from a trip to Montenegro, Bosnia, Croatia and Greece. She shares her thoughts on a fascinating, beautiful region whose climb out of fascism and sectarian warfare is still in progress. Why would someone look fondly back at communism? Is Croatia going the way of Poland in whitewashing Holocaust horrors? Where have all the Jews gone? Whitewater rafting and never-ending forests; disturbing narratives and the Sarajevo Hagadah. The first in a series on Eastern Europe.
