Description

Zlata Filipovic was given a diary shortly before her tenth birthday and began to write in it regularly.

She was an ordinary, if unusuallyintelligent and articulate little girl, and her preoccupations include whether or not to join the Madonna fan club, her piano lessons, her friends andher new skis.

But the distant murmur of war draws closer to her Sarajevo home.

Her father starts to wear military uniform and herfriends begin to leave the city.

One day, school is closed and the next day bombardments begin.

The pathos and power of Zlata's diary comes from watching the destruction of a childhood.

Her circle of friends isincreasingly replaced by international journalists who come to hear of this little girl's courage and resilience.

But the reality is that, as they flyoff with the latest story of Zlata, she remains behind, writing her deepest feelings to 'Mimmy', her diary, and her last remaining friend.
