Tales from Riding House Street by Helen Evangelou

In the West End of London my Greek Cypriot parents carved out a life for themselves through WWII and the disorderly 70s. This is my story, of being the daughter of migrants and of growing up through the years of political upheaval in both Cyprus and the UK.
Helen Evangelou was born and raised in London’s West End. During her career in publishing and TV news she has worked for organisations such as Independent Television News (ITN), The Associated Press and Al Jazeera English. Helen has travelled extensively, spending time in Australia and in Cyprus, where she set up ITN’S Nicosia bureau during the Middle Eastern hostage crisis in the late 1980s. She now lives in Suffolk. This book is a tribute to her Greek Cypriot parents, who lived and worked in central London but whose dreams always took them back to Cyprus.
