Cyprus, The Divided Island
By: Dr. Niki Karavasilis
Cyprus, The Divided Island, is a concise book of the most complex, intricate, and unjust history in the world narrated by people who lived and still live in Cyprus. The reader is submerged into the world of fear, suspicion, and violence among the Turkish and Greek Cypriots that didn't exist before Turkey unleashed the invasions, Attila I and Attila II.
Cyprus became a victim of violence and multiple atrocities of mankind due to the political intervention by foreign interests. The result was to divide the island in two by the buffer zone called the Green Line. The north for the Turkish Cypriots and the south for the Greek Cypriots.
Cyprus, The Divided Island, describes the politics of the island from 1954 to 1977. It also combines history and storytelling so that the reader understands how the decision by foreign governments and military leaders affected the people of Cyprus. The reader also observes the bond of two families; a Greek and a Turkish family that put their friendship above all the political events of hatred. In the end, Demitri, the son of the Turkish Cypriot family marries Eleni, a Greek Cypriot's daughter. They fall in love during the most devastating years of war, embracing the most powerful ingredient of life...love.
