Postcards from the Grave

Postcards from the Grave is a 2006 book by Emir Suljagic, relating to his experiences in Srebrenica, published by Saqi Books.

Most of the book deals with how Emir Suljagic survived the July 1995 Srebrenica massacre of over 8,000 men by the Bosnian Serb army. As an interpreter for the UN, he was evacuated with the Dutch UNPROFOR battalion while almost every man he had ever known and many women too lost their lives.

He decided to write his testimony of the event, which he has dedicated to the victims of the massacre - "ten thousand people, ten thousand coffins, ten thousand gravestones", to counter the revisionist history being put forth by such figures as George Bogdanich. . The book has received attention in the press and in after-action reports of the event as being accurate and undercutting many arguments of revisionists such as Lewis MacKenzie.
