Description

A Watermelon, a Fish and a Bible by Christy Lefteri is a moving novel about love and war. In July 1974, the Turkish army invaded the town of Kyrenia in Cyprus, bringing an end to life as people knew it. For some, this marked a chance to begin living again. Koki, a young woman, has always been the subject of gossip and speculation, her true identity and circumstances shrouded in mystery. Now, held captive with the women who have shaped her life, she finally finds the courage to reveal the truth about her past and the love she has longed for. As Adem Berker, a soldier from the invading force, searches for a glimpse of the woman he loves, the lines between past and present begin to blur. This powerful and emotional novel explores the complexities of love, identity, and survival in the face of war and oppression.
