Genius!

Polish-born Joseph Conrad wrote very effectively in his acquired English. And this Bosnian seems to have made the linguistic switch as well. I am very impressed. It is hard enough to learn another language and to speak it reasonably well. To write in another language and to do it as well or better than any native -- well, that is genius!
