Ivo Andrić's novel 'The Bridge on the Drina' tells the story of the city of Visegrad, in Bosnia, from the 16th century to the beginning of the 20th century. The stone bridge over the Drina River serves as the narrative axis, a meeting place and witness to the tensions and clashes between the various communities that make up the former Yugoslavia. Through small individual stories, the work explores the roots of hatred and violence in the region.
Ivo Andrić was a Yugoslav novelist, poet and short story writer who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1961. His writings dealt mainly with life in his native Bosnia under Ottoman rule.
