	GOLNA, CORNELIA City Of Man's Desire : a Novel of Constantinople Netherlands, Go-Bos Press. 2004, First Edition. (ISBN: 90-804-1144-2) Soft Cover. Constantinople 1908: the cosmopolitan capital of the Ottoman Empire teeters on the brink of upheaval. Turks dream of liberty while the subject peoples yearn for freedom , not necessarily the same thing. Far from the turmoil of Constantinople, in the Anatolian hinterland,archeologists are excavating an ancient city. There they uncover a past that seems to hold within it a warning for the present.The Greek girl Theodora Vlachos has other things on her mind. Her existence, centering around her family and thwarted infatuations, oppresses her and she longs for escape. Then the flamboyant Russian exile Natalya Petrovna and het brother Vlad enter her life. Their disturbing presence, coinciding with the dramatic events of the Young Turk Revolution, draw Theodora into a new, often volatile world. And there is John Townsend, the American professor, a dreamer and lover of Classical civilization, overtaken by his past just as he believes to have found peace in this city he has come to love. There is also the Poet, who has the words to say it all, but prefers to remain aloof in his house overlooking the Bosphorus. Revolutions take people by surprise; they raise hopes by romising change. City of Man's Desire tells the story of several individuals, how their lives intertwine as they struggle to understand and adapt to a new reality which, despite the designs of men, follows its own, unpredictable course. Cornelia Golna grew up and studied in the United States, where she received a Master's degree in Classical languages. She is of Greek-Romanian descent and has been living in the Netherlands for twenty years.(New - will be sent to you direct from the publisher). New Book from Publisher.
