"slowly, one or the other remembered an old story, his grandmother's and his own and others', village gossip, rumors about other relatives, funny incidents, but also deaths and bitterness and old sufferings, which now, after years, as they all sat there together in a circle, it didn't hurt so much to remember, everything was lighter, not like when it happened, a tangled skein of history that is being unraveled, one started and the other remembered it; everything they said, intertwined with current events, perhaps with news read in newspapers or seen on television; they stayed up for a long time talking, although they had to get up early the next morning to go to the village, they had to dig and open the grave themselves" Excerpt from the novel When someone dies in the family, the relatives gather and remember. Jeorjíu Andónisz's polyphonic documentary novel unfolds from this basic situation, in which a tableau of not only a family, but also the whole of contemporary Cyprus is slowly assembled from the mosaic pieces of story fragments. Through photographs, newspaper articles, literary works, recipe books, and personal letters, the intertwining storylines tell about life, death, love, war, and exile. The volume won the European Union Literature Prize. Andonis Jeorjiu
