Writing to Understand: Sarajevo and Chicago in English, Bosnian and Polish

Summary/Abstract: This article talks about short autobiographical stories in the collection Book of My Lives by Aleksandar Hemon. What makes this book a piece of art, how it works translated into Bosnian from English, when it was written in English with Bosnian background and cultural experience, as well as how it translates into Polish constitutes the basis for this article. Analyzing how publishers use titles, notes on the author, and other paratextual elements here is first step in the understanding how Hemon creates his work from Bosnian and American experiences and memories.
