Appropriately subtitled “The Famous, Fascinating and Ordinary People of the Serbian Diaspora” Mikasinovich’s latest book Memorable Encounters delights us with a compilation of vignettes, insights and views of some of the extraordinary characters, “movers and shakers” and just plain regular people he has met, interviewed or dined with the past five decades after his arrival as a student in America from his native Serbia.
Among the people interviewed are a Nobel Laureate, a Crown Prince, a billionaire, a singer popular on both sides of the Atlantic, a former spy and many others. Some of the names you will recognize and others you will not but each short encounter is a story to be remembered and shared.

Branko Mikašinović – „Nezaboravni susreti; poznati, fascinantni i obični ljudi srpske dijaspore“
Sa prikladnim podnaslovom „Poznati, fascinantni i obični ljudi srpske dijaspore“, najnovija knjiga Mikašinovića „Nezaboravni susreti“ oduševiće vas kolekcijom vinjeta, uvida i pogleda nekih izvanrednih likova, „pokretača i tresača“ , ali i običnih ljudi koje je autor upoznao, intervjuisao ili s njima večerao u proteklih pet decenija, nakon što je kao student iz rodne Srbije došao u Ameriku.
Među intervjuisanim ljudima su i nobelovac, prestolonaslednik, milijarder, pevač koji je popularan sa obe strane Atlantika, bivši špijun i mnogi drugi. Neka imena ćete prepoznati, a druga ne, ali svaki kratki susret je priča koju treba pamtiti i deliti.
