The World and All That It Holds by Aleksandar Hemon

This was not a typical selection for me. I typically am not attracted to "war" books, but I am glad that I read this. It's a beautiful portrayal of culture, love, longing, and the lengths we go to for love. Many quotable gems in here; beautifully written. Give it a chance, even if it isn't your typical genre - I am certainly glad that I did. Five stars!
