Žuta podmornica - 25 godina poslije

The book you have before you, dear readers, has been conceived as a memento of a media and cultural phenomenon in Osijek: Yellow Submarine, a wartime radio station which brought light, optimism and hope to Osijek’s cellars in the most trying times endured by our city in recent history during the Homeland War. In other words, with 25 years of historical hindsight, we are today talking about the Yellow Submarine as a project which become and remained a symbol of the Homeland War and the defence of the Unvanquished City: Osijek. This symbol was often the topic of discussion in the backrooms of city hall, over coffee in downtown cafés and at gatherings of war veterans, but little had been written about it and there are no records of how much the Yellow Submarine meant to soldiers and the rest of the city’s denizens in those wartime days. The project initiators and the compilers of this book thus decided to “rub Aladdin’s lamp, ” as one of their interlocutors said, and let the good genie of the Yellow Submarine once more take flight over Osijek.
