The World and All That It Holds
by Aleksandar Hemon
🏆 Winner of the 2023 Grand Prix de Littérature Américaine
The World and All That It Holds is a new historical novel by Bosnia-born novelist Aleksandar Hemon, who we interviewed more than a decade ago on the cheery topic of ‘Man’s Inhumanity To Man’. This novel is set at the outbreak of World War I and ranges from Sarajevo (where the main protagonist witnesses the killing of Archduke Ferdinand and Sophie, his wife) to Shanghai.
