a good article for all visitors.The below information is from VoA .
In September of two thousand four, the writer Aleksandar Hemon received a MacArthur Foundation award. These are known as “genius awards.” They are given each year to individuals who show great creativity in their work. MacArthur Fellows are given five hundred thousand dollars over five years to spend as they wish.
Aleksandar Hemon is the author of “The Question of Bruno” and “Nowhere Man.” Both books are about young men born in Sarajevo. Their lives are changed by the war in the former Yugoslavia in the early nineteen nineties.
Like the men in his books, Mister Hemon grew up in Sarajevo. He became a reporter and writer. He came to the United States in nineteen ninety-two as part of a cultural program. He was twenty-seven years old. After the Bosnian war started, Mister Hemon could not return home. He stayed in America and settled in Chicago.
