==Background==
Born in Dubrovnik, Krmpotić began her career as a poet and was among the first in Croatia to study and translate Indian literature. She learned Bengali while living in India, and her work shows the influence of Indian philosophy. Krmpotić has also lived in Egypt, the United States and Ghana, and while in the US she learned that her five-year-old son was suffering from leukemia. In her book, ''A Hill Above the Clouds'', Vesna documents the futile efforts she made to save her son's life through the ancient philosophies of Egypt and India. In the process, she encounters Sai Baba, which had a profound impact on her life and writing.〔 In the book, her diary entries records her son’s life from the time of his birth, symptoms of his disease, the trials and tribulations she faced to get him treated, her son's reaction to his sufferings and the boy realizing his state of health when he gives his toys away with a tragic comment: "Take them because I'll never come back."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Brdo iznad oblaka )〕
