"How We Survived Communism - and Still Laughed" was published in 1991. The writer later commented on the civil war in the Balkans with publications such as "Dying in Croatia - About the War in the Middle of Europe" (1992). Drakulic's further publications followed and were translated into more than 15 languages: in 1997 she published "The Love Offering" and "Café Paradies or The Longing for Europe".
