Lefkosa: Dörtrenk Matbaacilik, 1997. Soft cover. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (19 x 13 cm). In English. 142 p., b/w ills. To catch the rainbow. 1: The Cypriot story. "He paints pictures with words".; "A gifted writer a natural story teller".; "An excellent and truthful story about the author's boyhood and family life in Paphos. The reader lives the emotion page by page". "This is an autobiography, cleverly written in the third person, and what I have read so far covers the birth of young Gökalp at Paphos in 1940, and the ensuing 16 years - after which he was to be spirited away from the island to avoid death at the hands of the EOKA terrorists. There is no trace of hysteria in this writing, which is fluently economical with its prose, and an absolute delight to read. In fact, I am quite impatient to read the rest of this captivating first novel.
