The story behind the YA novel \u003ci\u003eWorld in Between: Based on a True Refugee Story\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e At age eleven, Kenan Trebincevic was a happy, karate-loving kid living with his family in the quiet Eastern European town of Brcko. Then, in the spring of 1992, war broke out and his friends, neighbors and teammates all turned on him. Pero - Kenan's beloved karate coach - showed up at his door with an AK-47 - screaming: \"You have one hour to leave or be killed!\" Kenan's only crime: he was Muslim. This poignant, searing memoir chronicles Kenan's miraculous escape from the brutal ethnic cleansing campaign that swept the former Yugoslavia. After two decades in the United States, Kenan honors his father's wish to visit their homeland, making a list of what he wants to do there. Kenan decides to confront the former next door neighbor who stole from his mother, see the concentration camp where his Dad and brother were imprisoned and stand on the grave of his first betrayer to make sure he's really dead. Back in the land of his birth, Kenan finds something more powerful--and shocking--than revenge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/25\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143124573\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2013 pg. 11\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/16\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2014 pg. 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/06\/2014 pg. 25\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kenan Trebincevic, Susan Shapiro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42916802625717,"sku":"9780143124573","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_78b5f29e-2a4a-4134-aeab-c92d57c0e61a.jpg?v=1687271222","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-bosnia-list-a-memoir-of-war-exile-and-return-9780143124573","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
