''The Scent of Rain in the Balkans'' ((セルビア語:Мирис кише на Балкану, ''Miris Kiše na Balkanu'')) is a historical novel written by Gordana Kuić. The novel was published in 1986, becoming an instant bestseller. It centers on the Salom family, most notably five sisters — Buka, Nina, Klara, Blanki and Riki. The novel was inspired by Kuić's mother Blanki Levi and her sisters. ''The Scent of Rain in the Balkans'' follows the destinies of, not only Jews, but also Serbs, Muslims and Catholics during two major historical events — World War I and World War II. In his review of the novel, David Albahari wrote: ''The Scent of Rain in the Balkans'' has been adapted into a ballet, a play and a television series. == Plot == The novel describes the historic period in the Balkans from the beginning of World War I in 1914, to the end of World War II in 1945 through the lives and destinies of the Saloms, a Sephardic Jewish family from Sarajevo. The leading characters are the five courageous Salom sisters whose struggle to fulfil personal desires and aspirations run contrary to the strict conventions of the multicultural and religious societies — Bosnian Jew, Muslim, Serbian Orthodox and Catholic — of the time, living side by side in the small town of Sarajevo.
