• Sommario/riassunto: The story of a woman who wanted everything and the man who could not refuse her, Milosevic and Markovic tells how Slobodan Milosevic and his childhood sweetheart became the most powerful people in Serbia and ultimately destroyed a country. A university professor known as the "red witch" for her hardline political beliefs, Mira Markovic provided the intellectual justification for their shared goal of a Greater Serbia. As the president of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Slobodan ruthlessly unleashed ethnic cleansing, rape as a military tactic, and the death of tens of thousands in the pursuit of their dream."--Jacket.
