When I first started reading They Would Never Hurt a Fly‚ I thought it to be a real page turner which I found would enthral even the most disinterested of readers. The use of language and the author’s personal narrative approach was refreshing to me. The book itself is split up into story like essays of Drakulic’s measurement of the accused men and women‚ including an analysis of the proceedings of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY).
