While predominantly a work of fiction, this tale is based on a real event that took place during the Balkan War of the 1990s. The civil war around Sarajevo is the backdrop to an unexpected love story. We follow the fortunes of a British comedian who travels to the besieged city to bring some light relief to the suffering citizens. Once there, he is invited to help run an unusual contest designed to bring some normality to the citizen's desperate, war-torn lives. This short story is taken from a collection called 'Fonts', where each story is prompted by the name of a font.
