VELIBOR ČOLIĆ
His first book to be published in France, "Les Bosniaques", described the war in Bosnia, and caused a minor earthquake on its release. Full of devastating truth and urgency, Velibor Colic's words are a plea for tolerance. Born in a small town in Bosnia, he sought refuge in France after deserting from the Bosnian army in 1992. He was taken in by the Writers Parliament in Strasbourg, and now lives in Brittany.
