About the Book

A family's history is shaped by the conflicts during the 1960s and 70s in Cyprus.Kiraz Nora Johansson and her twin brother never knew their mother who died while giving birth. By invitation of a family friend she travels to Cyprus and discovers her family's past. Through a history that was nearly lost to her and her troubled brother, she learns what it means to love and becomes forever tied to the Cypriot people and their unforgettable island home.A "Green Line" on a map splits a nation and its capitol. Not long ago the people of Cyprus were torn from their lands by external forces. No matter wich side of the divide they live on today, they are a united people in a country divided. They are the people in between.
About the Author: Today Cyprus remains the only nation in the world with a divided capitol city. The nation has a demilitarized zone cutting through it and the once mixed cultures of Greek and Turkish Cypriot speaking people living together in inter-communal villages are now divided. I chose to tell this story as a family saga using a young woman as the main character. Through the voices of several characters, the complicated and confusing contemporary history of Cyprus is presented in a way that isn't burdensome to the reader. Over the years I've noticed that in regions prone to insurgent warfare, it is the women who are most influential in either maintaining or re-establishing peace, which is why I wanted the main character in my novel to be a young woman. "The People In Between" was intended to entertain and enlighten at the same time.
