Description
A touching story of cultural difference and tested loyalties. Set in Belgrade before WWII Fathers and Forefathers tells the story of the marriage between a Steven a Serb and Elizabeth an Englishwoman. After meeting at an English university they marry and leave England to build their life together. Steven's narrative and Elizabeth's letters home reveal two very different personal accounts of the difficulties this involves. Raised in Serbia their son Mihajlo is ashamed of his mixed parentage and rebels against his non-Serbian ancestry. On the eve of the war Steven's loyalties are challenged when his counsel is sought by both the Serbian king and the opposition. He resolves to keep his distance from the conflict but Mihajlo's more radical response forces him to become involved and tragedy engulfs the family.
