This book about my legal struggle in Croatia is a big surprise for me. It crossed my mind only yesterday morning, but it is already finished and ready to go the following afternoon. Amazingly, it took a bit more than twenty-four hours to hammer down. It will come useful with my appeal to the Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, but I hope it will attract a wider readership along the way. Human rights are far from Croatia’s forte. In many ways, it is still behind the proverbial Iron Curtain. Although it is hard to believe that Strasbourg could help it out of the quagmire, hope is all I have at present. Undying hope, no less.
