# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Milovan Đilas was born on 12 June 1911 and became a key figure in the Partisan movement during World War II, fighting his way into Yugoslavia's post-war government as a communist insider. Somewhere along that arc he shifted, identifying as a democratic socialist and breaking with the regime. The transformation made him one of the best-known dissidents in Yugoslavia and across Eastern Europe — a theorist and author now writing against the apparatus he once served. He died on 20 April 1995.
