The Balkans have been so troubled by violence and misunderstanding that we have the verb "balkanize", meaning to break up into smaller, warring components. While some of the region's artists and thinkers have invariably fallen into nationalistic tendencies, the twenty-one prominient authors represented here, originally from the erstwhile Yugoslavia and its neighbors Albania and Bulgaria, have chosen to attempt to bridge these divides. The essays, biographical sketches, and stories in 'The Stranger Next Door' form a project of understanding that picks up where politics fail. źródło opisu: Northwestern University Evanston, Illinois, 2013
