|
|
Two new books are out. One by Pavlos Dinglis (Bitter truths) and another one by Kyriakos Tziampazis (Collapsed myths). I think both are worth reading.
Mustn't forget Sevgul's books (the oysters that lost their diamonds). All three are written by REAL Cypriots who place Cyprus above everything else. |

the dinglis one yes.
the sevgul one (published in turkish since september) is about the pain of cyprus rather than politics . even though our pain comes from the political problem.
tha tziampazis sounds political but i dont have a clue |

| They are not soap operas Mehmet and cypezokyli has guessed right about the Tziampazis book which is written by Kyriakos from Afania, with a Greek forename and a Turkish-sounding surname. Actually, quite a few Turkish Cypriots from his village (including the Mukhtar) were present at the presentation of the book, two weeks ago. The main speaker was Niazi Kizilyurek who had a few good things to say about the book. |

just got the book of sevgül.
sth interesting. she always wanted to write in a Greek Cypriots newspaper. she did for a while in vima, the newspaper of vasileiou. the reaction of the progressive people in the north was: should we start calling you maroulla? we should say kalimera to you and not gunaydin anymore. so you started wrting for a Greek Cypriot newspaper?
noone cared for what i wrote, everybody cared that i wrote in the south.
after vima was closed down she attempted cooperation with haravgi - akels newspapers , and phileleftheros - the goverments newspaper :) and she received a negative answer. is anyone surprised..? just wondering, bc i am not. she got a positive answer from alithia, one of the dysi newspapers...
progressive people in the north and the south... |
