I read both of them whenever I can, in translation in GC newspapers.

Sevgul Uludag also writes fiction, although I never came across any. She has written an account of how the two main communities of Cyprus have gone at each other and the results. The details are recognisable by any Cypriot who has had even passing contact with the fanatics of either side.

She wrote about the Afania massacre of GCs and in one detail, the age of the killers, she echoes the events of another place, Maratha and Sandalaris where the killers, GCs this time, were also very young. This detail, and the importance of many things is in the details, should ring alarms in everyone here. The killers had been of the first generation of Cypriots to have grown up apart. They did not have a chance to have any experience of the "other" therefore no cause to hate. Separation is not a solution to this particular problem, obviously.

Nikitas , I feel so humble that until Halil gave me this book I had never heard of this T/C lady .Halil also gave me three bottles of red wine , I drunk the wine and thoroughly enjoyed each bottle but the thrill of reading this book far exists the the pleasure I received by drinking the wine.
You know something , Halil told me about the wine but never mentioned the book , he simply put in the bag with the wine , not a word said ..


Hope you did not drink them all at once! :lol: :lol:

When in Cyprus my wine consumption increases , for the simple reason that in the UK I never drink and drive and neither do I drink during the day apart from Sunday lunch. In Cyprus however since I'm not working I tend to drink more at lunch and even more at dinner time. The 3 bottles given to me by Halil were consumed over a period of 2 days !!

I hope this does not sound flippant ... but a UN truck squashed my cat on their way to Kokkina, in the Summer of 1965 .... Sad .... and they did not even stop!


No, no, no....

It's not flippant at all

No more so than the rest of what you say.

and the one who haw been threatened by the grey wolves....
always interesting how people "forget" these things :wink:


she was writing for some years in "alitheia" , and after she got sacked from "phileleftheros", it didnot take her more than a couple of weeks , to move to "politis", where she is writing since.

some months ago she made together with parashos, and with some childern of the missing people, a small conference.

i assume you where not there.... or am I wrong ?

She has also been to a number of funerals of Greek Cypriots that were identified with the DNA method. I was present in one, a couple of months ago, a missing person from my village called Kkitros. The gandson of the diseased (a lawyer) made a special mention to Sevgul and thanked her for all her efforts in determining the fate of missing persons, from both communities.

Sevgul is a gem! I deeply admire her and feel very proud to have met her and just be her compatriot.
