In his travels through Croatia, Tony Fabijancic saw a world of peasants, shepherds and fishermen irrevocably giving way to the new reality of a modern European state. With a deft and sure touch, he records moments that capture the lingering spirit of the old world even as the former fabric of this place is unravelling forever. The author's profound familiarity with the 'extraordinary regionality' of Croatia leads to memorable images of the country, and to sketches and unhurried ruminations on its people, its landscapes, kitchens, cities, and coastlines.
"Join Tony Fabijancic as he returns to his homeland exploring the quiet hidden corners and the complex history of this beautiful place..." -- Wanderlust, August 2003.
