Fig tree:
I wish I could have told him that loneliness is a human invention. Trees are never lonely. Humans think they know with certainty where their being ends and someone else’s starts. (…) For us everything is interconnected.

A map is a two-dimensional representation with arbitrary symbols and incised lines that decide who is to be our enemy and who is to be our friend, who deserves our love and who deserves our hatred and who, our sheer indifference.

Such an interesting read that feels almost nonfiction in some ways with the recounting of the history of Cyprus but interspersed with commentary and information from the fig tree as well as the story of the two individuals who are the foundation of the story.

Unusual method used to narrate the storyline involving what appears to be a talking fig tree ( or is it ? ) describing events and personal relationships in Cyprus prior to 1974 and thereafter in London in 2000’s &2010’s onwards between a Cypriot Greek , Kostas and a Cypriot Turk, Dephne

When a book becomes available from the library, I have to set aside other books. Such an unusual start and I love the narrator who speaks up every few segments and provides background.

Waar oorlog en een pijnlijke scheidslijn zijn, zullen nooit winnaars zijn, menselijke noch andere.

Que liberdade! Talvez em um mundo regido por regras e regulamentos que não faziam muito sentido, e que em geral privilegiavam uns poucos em detrimento da maioria, a loucura fosse a única e verdadeira liberdade.

Restos humanos… O que isso significava exatamente? Alguns ossos duros e tecidos moles? Roupas e acessórios? Coisas sólidas e compactas o suficiente para caber dentro de um caixão? Ou na verdade seria o intangível […] Quando tudo já foi finalizado, o que resta de uma vida inteira, de um ser humano… E isso pode realmente ser desenterrado do chão?

Porque se tem algo que aprendi é: onde quer que haja guerra e divisões dolorosas, não haverá vencedores, quer sejam humanos, quer não.

No fim das contas, todas nós lembramos pelo mesmo motivo que tentamos esquecer: sobreviver em um mundo que não nos entende nem nos valoriza.

Onde começa a história de alguém quando toda a vida tem mais de um fio e o que chamamos de nascimento não d o único começo, nem a morte é exatamente um fim?
