San Diego: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1988. Very good+ (tiny dent on the top front cover edge; slight browning of pages) in fine dust jacket. Originally published in Serbo-Croatian, this is the first edition of the English translation. Translated by Bernard Johnson. Set in Novi Sad on the Hungarian border during World War II. The war overtakes a group of friends, and the novel depicts the different fates that await them and the consequences of seemingly unimportant decisions. Irving Howe writes, in a jacket blurb, that "one ends with a great deal of pity for his characters.". 1st Edition. Hard Cover.

The Use of Man Tapa blanda - 1988
de Aleksandar Tisma; Bernard Johnson (Translator)
Resumen
Four individuals from a small town in Yugoslavia find themselves among drastically different fates during World War II. Two become Nazis, one joins the Partisans, and one is sent to a concentration camp.
Set in Yugoslavia prior to and during World War II, this tale of devastation traces the lives of four friends born in the same small town. They went to school together, took dancing lessons, stole kisses, were taught German by an old maid who kept a diary. But when war comes, half-Jewish Vera is sent to a concentration camp while her German cousin becomes a Nazi; Serbian boyfriend Milinko joins the Partisans; and another classmate, also a Serb, becomes fascinated by the magic of killing. Tisma's portrayal of their situation is certainly poignant, but he belabors the obvious in overly melodramatic fashion.
