As Ian Hancock notes in the introduction, this dictionary has been years in the making, and its early drafts have been in circulation among a select few for at least three decades. It should come as no surprise then that this Kalderash dictionary, by Learn Romani author Ronald Lee, is fundamentally different from many previously published Romani dictionaries: Firstly, it is compiled by a native Romani speaker; secondly, it covers and, where appropriate, differentiates European and North American Kalderash terms; and thirdly, it is a decidedly academic quality work that does not shy away from Romani grammar. Prefaced by a grammatical primer, containing over 20,000 lexical items, and filled with countless real world examples of idiomatic usage, this book is an indispensable resource for anyone looking to learn or work with Kalderash Romani.

Hedina Tahirovic Sijercic, Bosnia-Herzegovina's first Romani journalism graduate and a former Radio-TV Sarajevo host and producer, writes with raw and sometimes shocking honesty about growing up Romani in pre-war Sarajevo. "Rom like Thunder" is a memoir of both father and daughter, of life's joys and sorrows, of poverty and daily struggle in a Sarajevan Romani mahala, and the very real story of a young Romani girl's determination and drive to rise beyond everyone else's foregone conclusions about her destiny.

Ronald Lee's autobiographical novel, formerly published as "Goddam Gypsy", is an intense, fast moving, and brutally honest affair. Yanko--a Canadian Rom who 'took the non-Romani way but didn't go far'--seeks his fortunes both among and apart from the Roma, never quite finding his place. His story exposes the out of sight, out of mind world of Canada's Roma in 1970's Montreal: Parties, rackets, bar brawls, weddings, desperate poverty, and intermittent police raids fuel in Yanko the passion, creativity, and rebellious defiance that is The Living Fire.

A collection of richly evocative poems in both English and Romanian weave together the author's fleeting joys and enduring tragedies with traditional Romanian folklore.
