Excellent- More about Nicosia Beyond Barriers: Voices from a Divided City
Nicosia, the divided capital of Cyprus, is a city of endless possibilities, where writers from all sides of the divide reimagine the past, present, and future. This is a place where anthropologists, Marxists, tango dancers, and artists are hunted by gunmen, experience time differences, and find their workplaces on rooftops. Together, they create a complete picture of Nicosia, defying barriers of all kinds.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 256 pages
Publication date: 06 June 2019
Publisher: Saqi Books
For decades, Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus, has been divided by a militarized border. In this collection, writers from all sides of the divide reimagine the past, present, and future of their city. Here, Cypriot-Greeks coexist alongside Cypriot-Turks, the north with the south, town with countryside, dominant voices with the marginalized. This is a city of endless possibilities - a place where an anthropologist from London and a talkative Marxist are hunted by a gunman in the Forbidden zone; where a romance between two aspiring Tango dancers falls victim to Nicosia's time difference; and where an artist finds his workplace on a rooftop, where he paints a horizon disturbed only by birds. Together, these writers journey beyond the beaten track, creating a complete picture of Nicosia, the world's last divided capital city, that defies barriers of all kinds.
