Synopsis "Blood and Koka Kola"
New Zealand novelist JOAN ROSSITER - JONES says about the 24 short stories in Blood and Koka Kola: "This collection of short stories by poet and artist, Christodoulos Moisa, is everything such a book should be. The author has put his artist's eyes and poet's ear to good use. The stories have the sparseness of Hemingway and resonate with an understanding of the human condition - a prerequisite of the genre. They make compelling reading and the subject matter ranges from macabre to historical, from the mythical to the quirky, some enigmatic, others rich with humour and irony; all written with perfect pitch. The mix of New Zealanders and Cypriots reflects the author's own history and lends authenticity to the stories. It is a treasure.""Moisa doesn't disappoint. His stories are wide-ranging, both in subject matter and character portrayal, and his wit and his perception of human frailty reflect a life lived in several manifestations. This collection covers stories from New Zealand scenes as well as echoing the six years spent as a child in Cyprus in the late 1950s and as a young man in 1973 and 1974. ... Several of Moisa's stories have the surprise ending which is imperative for a good story, and this is one of the strengths and delights of his book ... Blood and Koka Kola ... is a very interesting, insightful and appealing collection of short stories ..." MICHAEL O'LEARY - Landfall
