Set in the ruins of Yugoslavia, this book explores the images and realities of war, destruction and dictatorship, and of fertility, nurture and peace. The key figure is the Balkan rain maiden. This gypsy or peasant girl takes on a mythological authority and a wholly modern moral presence. In the wake of waste and war she is the incarnation of hope.
