The Time: the immediate aftermath of the bloody Balkan wars of the 90s.

The Man: a penniless science-fiction author.

The Job: write the official biography of Croatia's President, Franjo Tudjman.

In an effort to keep Tudjman out of the War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague, the Croatian government hired Joe Tripician, author of "The Official Alien Abductee's Handbook", to pen a state-sanctioned biography for US consumption. The biography, far from a whitewashed piece of propaganda, became a darkly comic and sadly tragic tale of deception, danger, death and desire, where guilt abounds, but responsibility remains elusive.

"Balkanized at Sunrise" is the true story of how Joe navigated between toadying government aides, lying politicians, harassed dissident journalists, and Croatian and Bosnian women looking for a quick visa. It's a fascinating memoir of political, moral, and sexual proportions.

!1: Best Buy I saw the author perform his riveting story in a New York theater, and this book is just as entertaining. There's nothing better than a good spy thriller, and "Balkanized at Sunrise" is an excellent read with a strong comedic voice. It covers Balkan politics and intrigue from the author's unique point of view when he was hired to write the official biography of Croatia's war-time President, Franjo Tudjman.

As the protagonist of the story the author spares no self-criticism, and is equally as brutally honest in his assessment of the political players in the field. The mystery of why he was hired and why he took the assignment is revealed at the end in a most satisfying way.

"Balkanized at Sunrise" is a one-of-a-kind book about a once-in-a-lifetime situation. There are passages that are extremely funny and others that are genuinely moving. I wish it were available in hard copy so I could place it on my bookshelf.
