His stories stretch back hundreds, sometimes thousands of years, and yet they always tackle contemporary themes. This collection deserves to spread its wings and travel much further than the sandy shores of the island of Cyprus. Because despite the highly localised nature of these stories, the themes are universal, just like Homers.</em> -<strong>A J Kirby, The Short Review</strong></p><p><strong>---</strong></p><p>GREGORIOS AND EFTHYMIOS</p><p>A St. Bartholomew night of massacre carried out in Medieval Cyprus by edict of the Pope and of the Vatican.<br />A satanic intrigue masterminded by the Pope and the Vatican led to a bloodbath and the mutual annihilation of the military Orders of the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospitallers in enslaved Medieval Cyprus. Long before Dan Brown discovered and revealed The Da Vinci Code...</p><p>KYPRIANI</p><p>Slave woman and wet nurse, Kypriani exacts revenge on the Ottoman invaders and occupiers of her homeland, Venetian Cyprus of the Middle Ages, by spreading leprosy to newborns during breastfeeding.</p><p>GREGORY</p><p>The friendship, which develops between a group of EOKA guerrilla fighters and their British hostage Gregory, does not prevent them from executing him when the order arrives. Yet ignoring the order to place his body on public display, as an example, they bury their friend and victim.</p><p>The short story has been translated and published in dozens of languages, including Braille.</p><p>VAGABOND STREET</p><p>Vagabond Street, a road and sanctuary inhabited only by people incurably damaged by war.</p><p>THE UNIFORMS</p><p>Can uniforms worn as camouflage, at a moment of deadly peril, by two young people from enemy camps - a young Turkish woman and a Greek Cypriot soldier magically transform them into siblings, or mother and son? The answer given in the story is a poignant yes.</p><p>THE UNSEEN ASPECT</p><p>An old refugee from Lapithos, Cyprus, and his granddaughter, live on a wasteland, a place of skulls, locked in an epic and tragic struggle with nature, in a defeat and a victory reminiscent of Hemingways classic novel The Old Man and the Sea. The short story has been translated into dozens of languages including Chinese.</p>...9789963620876_Armida Publicationslibro_electonico_124d4f98-8007-3e83-ad73-82a70c8ed31c_9789963620876;9789963620876_9789963620876Panos IoannidesInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/content2connect_drm-epub-858ec01b-382a-424a-a47b-b19232f8b0f3.epub2018-10-25T00:00:00+00:00Armida Publications
