Publisher's Synopsis
The process of ethnographic fieldwork often implies the art of mosaic-making. In Pieces of Mosaic, anecdotes from inside as well as from outside Macedonia are joined together in a complex and fluid mosaic. With its foreground and field in the multi-ethnic community of Resen, which borders Greece and Albania in the Prespa Lake Region, the essay places a wager on inter-ethnic co-existence. The anthropologist's intervention takes the form of a civil iconoclasm, where hard and hateful histories give way to a shared and diverse future.
