Description
used copy – rather in perfect condition, like new
Restring Cypriot ruins, watching the Berlin wall collapse, living with Nicosia’s Green Line, experencing the otherness of Instanbul, discovering Egyptian dancers in Damascus; spies, bloggers, book collectors, minefields, the meaning of a park , the pain of statelessness, the tragedy of Iraq and Aphrodite’s divided island; Tony Blair’s fear making, modern art, Che Guevara, Picasso and a Swiss who builds bridges to express his love for the world and it’s people. These essays move from one thing to the unexpected other, connecting people, ideas and places with the realities of our time.
