About A Place Between Borders
In the final days of World War II, Zora Brković and her family flee the violent upheaval sweeping Yugoslavia, crossing the mountains of Croatia and Slovenia toward the promise of safety in Italy. Instead, they are thrust into overcrowded displaced-persons camps, where hunger, uncertainty, and uprooting threaten to erase their identities. As her family struggles to rebuild a fragile Serbian community, Zora begins to suspect they are being deliberately denied the chance to emigrate. Intimate and meticulously researched, Mila Evanovich’s latest work is a powerful testament to endurance—and the cost of being erased by history.

In the early 1990s, Yugoslavia split into several countries, which today are known as Bosnia and Herzegovina*, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia.
*Although Bosnia and Herzegovina is one country, it comprises two autonomous entities and one district.
