A Biography of a Bookshop

Authors

Ruth Keshishian

Abstract

The Moufflon Bookshop is part of a large sandstone building in the ‘liner’ style of curved architecture from the nineteen forties; it is now dwarfed by the high rise buildings that surround and block the original view of the uninterrupted line of the Kyrenia Mountains. But a photograph which I keep at the front desk, enjoyed by customers, shows the same location in the quite recent past, where sheep are grazing amongst the shrubs and rocky terrain just outside the visible renaissance Venetian walled city of Nicosia.
