Query: The Knife

Vuk Draskovic is an amazing writer of great power. Knife is his most controversial novel, almost banned when it was first published in the early '80s.This is a story about the search for some of the most fundamental of life's questions: who am I? What am I? etc. Draskovic creates believable characters; you will laugh, hate, love, and cry along with them. It shows better than most books I've read that nothing is black and white, it shows in the most realistic way, contradictory feelings and conflicts that cannot be resolved.Loosely based on historical facts, Knife also gives an opportunity to examine the history of the conflicts in the Balkans. Book goes beyond this, though, and talks about universal themes as any other classic. This could have been set in England, Ireland, Spain, anywhere in the world and it would still be as powerful and gripping.Highly recommended!
