Melania Trump; The Slovenian Side of the Story

Breitbart: SEVNICA, Slovenia — It’s a short book, just 42 pages and some filled with photographs. But it goes a long way in explaining the facts about the strong, proud people who carved a small but free nation out of the former Communist Yugoslavia and produced one of the most famous women in the world: Melania Trump.

Author Sandi Gorisek doesn’t consider himself a writer, although he admits he is fond of dreaming up fairy tales to share with children.

 

“I’m a storyteller,” says Gorisek, who makes a living as a mechanical engineer in a town just a few miles away from Melania’s hometown of Sevnica.

But since Donald J. Trump decided to run for president — and then won — elevating his Slovenian wife to first lady, Gorisek had a “now or never” moment.

The result: Melania Trump; The Slovenian Side of the Story, a quick read full of historic facts, insightful observations, and revealing truths about a patriotic people who are tough survivors of Communism and enthusiastic entrepreneurs in their now free homeland.

Gorisek told Breitbart News, in fact, that 30 years ago he would not have been able to write his book about Melania because of government censorship. At 33, his life has mostly unfolded in a free Slovenia that earned its independence during the 10-day war in 1991.

Gorisek spoke with Breitbart News in Sevnica about his book, which reveals how Melania Trump’s past shaped her and how her new role as America’s first lady could help shape the future of her new home.  more

5 Comments on Melania Trump; The Slovenian Side of the Story

  1. I’ve been to Slovenia several times and I highly recommend it. For one, it did not get blown to smithereens by the Serbs. The people are friendly, it’s not overrun with tourists, it’s inexpensive, and the western part is very much like Austria with a dash of Switzerland. Also, they don’t allow mosques so any muslims there are migrant workers from Bosnia who mind their own business.

  2. Most people see her as an empty headed supermodel and trophy wife. The more people know about her and her country of origin, the better. It is an interesting story, unlike the previous First Lady.
