They Would Never Hurt a Fly
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
They Would Never Hurt a Fly by Slavenka Drakulić is a 2004 book discussing the personalities of the Hague War Crimes defendants from the former Yugoslavia (see International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia). Most chapters are personality profiles of an individual war criminal, rather than expositions of hard facts. Most of those discussed are already convicted. Radovan Karadžić is not covered at all, Slobodan Milošević and his wife each rate their own chapter, and Ratko Mladić is portrayed as a Greek tragic figure. Usually only the crimes for which the subjects have been convicted are mentioned. There are no pictures, although the physical appearance of the characters is continuously mentioned.
