The Question of Bruno

A electrifying collection of stories from one of the most blazing talents working in English today.

From the author of The World and All That It Holds, Aleksandar Hemon''s stunning debut The Question of Bruno is a collection of beautifully told yet polically-charged short fiction.

In this elegy for the vanished Yugoslavia, Hemon''s stories journey through the intertwined history of a family and a nation, writing in prose of unparalleled daring, invention and wit.

This collection features the novella Blind Jozef & Dead Souls, as a young immigrant to the United States watches while his homeland of Sarajevo falls to a violent siege.

‘Like Nabokov, Hemon writes with the startling peeled vision of the outsider, weighing words as if for the first time; he shares with Kundera an ability to find grace and humour in the bleakest of circumstances’ – Observer
