Abstract
This paper is concerned with the life and fate of people with diaspora identities. Thegoal is to explain the intricate interplay between the terms diaspora, identity and diaspora identity, as well as the use of the term stranger and exemplify them through the works of a Bosnian-American essayist, book author, screenwriter and critic Aleksandar Hemon, who was born and raised in Sarajevo and moved to Chicago in 1992. He initially came to Chicago on an exchange program, but due to the outbreak of the war in Bosnia permanently remained in the USA. In the next few years, he started to write in English and has since written several acclaimed works that deal with the theme of diaspora identity, three of which are used in this paper to exemplify the difficulties an individual might face in such circumstances. Those works are: The Book of My Lives, Nowhere Man and The Question of Bruno.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj rad proučava život i sudbine ljudi koji žive identitet dijaspore. Cilj ovoga rada je objasniti složenu povezanost pojmova dijaspora, identitet i identiteta dijaspore, kao i upotrebu pojma stranac i prikazati to sve na primjeru djela bosansko-američkog esejista, autora, scenarista i kritičara Aleksandra Hemona koji se rodio u Sarajevu i 1992. godine preselio u Chicago. Prvotno je u Chicago došao putem programa razmjene, no zbog početka rata u Bosni i Hercegovini u SAD-u je i ostao. Kroz idućih par godina počeo je pisati na engleskom jeziku i otada je napisao više cijenjenih djela se bave temom identiteta dijaspore, od kojih su tri djela korištena u ovom radu s ciljem prikaza problema s kojima se osoba može susresti u takvim okolnostima. Ta djela su: Knjiga mojih života, Čovjek bez prošlosti i Pitanje Bruna.
