Summary/Abstract: On the occasion of the publication of the book “Nineteen ninety-two”, which documents the wartime events in Doboj – a book which has already seen two editions in just one month, while the third one is being prepared – in which the author, Mirko Jeleč, points out that the truth about the beginning of the war in Doboj was purposely kept hidden for thirty years, but the witnesses of these events are still alive and the crimes for which no one answered still hurt. In order to draw attention to this valuable literary and documentary prose, we publish two stories from the book in our “Word” section, along with a statement from the author himself under the title “Three truths hide the real truth.“ In the “Reviews” section we also publish a review of the book “Nineteen ninety-two” which was written by Miralem Begić, a journalist, and in the “Glossary of new authors” we also provide some basic biographical information on Mirko Jeleč.
