He grew up in the village where the children's author Roald Dahl lived, on the High Street where the Big Friendly Giant snatched Sophie from her orphanage bed. Having graduated in Politics with East European Studies from the University of Nottingham, he moved to Belgrade in 2000 and worked for the independent radio station B92 as an editor, translator, and newsreader before joining Reuters news agency as a foreign correspondent. He spent the next fifteen years reporting from southeast Europe, the Middle East, and former Soviet Union, but kept returning to the Balkans. This is the first novel he has translated.
