Description

On February 13, Home for Cooperation will host two special poets, one Palestinian and one Israeli - Amir Or and Marwan Makhoul -, to share their "poems from the conflict zone" in their own language. The readings will be translated to Turkish, Greek and English by Maria Siakalli (Greek Cypriot poet) and Neşe Yaşın (Turkish Cypriot poet) during the event.

Both Amir Or and Marwan Makhoul are award-winning poets, with their poems translated in several different languages.

The event, moderated by renowned Cypriot poet Neşe Yaşın, will start at 18:30 (EET) with a presentation from the poets and continue with reading and will end at 20:30 (EET) with questions.
