...paramilitary gangster who was gunned down in a hotel lobby a year ago. Dressed in rich furs and long black overcoats, the mourners snaked past Raznjatovic's gaudy monument, kissing the cold marble and sharing plastic cups of soda. Serbia's neighbors view such demonstrations of misplaced loyalty with disgust...

They look forward all week to racing their bikes against other gangs from other neighborhoods. And while they profess to have nothing but disgust for the slum's hard-core addicts, by 4 a.m. that night, in Big's room in his parent's house, on a mattress laid on the floor next to his beloved Honda, Big and his friends are smoking yaba and there suddenly seems very little difference between his crowd...
