"This is a delightful and profound book written by an American teacher who taught English as a second language in Pristina during 2000 and 2001, just after the conflict. She started the book club and kept this journal. She learned much from the students who had endured the war and makes first-hand political and sociological observations. Dale"
"Fascinating to hear the voice of the people of other countries appreciating what Americans do around the world on behalf of their freedom. After reading, good to look at the book's website to see pictures and where the students are now."
"This was a great book for our book club. There was a lot of discussion, and room for plenty more. Wow! I feel like I need to be more informed about things going on in the world rather than just in my world. Highly recommended...especially in the book club format."
"Nice easy read of a woman's diary during her work as ESL teacher in Kosovo right after NATO intervention. I realized I had totally forgotten Kosovo now that the headlines were full of Iraq. It made me go on line to research more information."
