Stolen Voices

Young People's War Diaries From World War I To Iraq

EDITED BY ZLATA FILIPOVI'C AND MELANIE CHALLENGER

Brief Description:
Zlata Filipovic's diary of her harrowing war experiences in the Balkans, published in 1993, made her a globally recognized spokesperson for children affected by military conflict. In Stolen Voices, she and co-editor Melanie Challenger have gathered fifteen diaries of young people coping with war, from World War I to the struggle in Iraq that continues today. Profoundly affecting testimonies of shattered youth and the gritty particulars of war in the tradition of Anne Frank, this extraordinary collection - the first of its kind - is sure to leave a lasting impression on young and old readers alike.
