Summary

The story of Garabed Kiremidjian whose parents escaped the Armenian Genocide only to be caught up in further conflict in Cyprus. His story is a glimpse into the life of an Armenian family working their way out of the poverty of 1920’s Cyprus, living through the fight for independence from the British and suffering further during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974.

Along the way they are helped by the Armenian Community which came together to shelter and educate thousands of Armenian Genocide orphans. Through this, new families formed bringing a glimmer of joy to those who survived, helping them cope with their painful memories.

An inspiring and moving autobiography

This is the deeply moving and inspiring story of an Armenina man called Garabed Kiremidjian, full of fascinating history from the time. It's a tale about the Armenina struggle under Turkish ottoman rule and how through incredible courage, determination and miracle some survived to tale the stroy. Highly recommend it as a fascinating account of the time, captivating and heartfelt.
