In this chapter, form pages 205 to 216 we read that Kapuscinski was in Cyprus, and the war between Greeks and Turks was taking place. The title cuaght my attention, because at first he was amazed with the beauty of the place, but afterwards he gets to a refugee camp, full of homeless people. There was a confusion, and they told Kapuscinski to say a encouragment speech for all these people. But he was speechless, he knew that what he could say would be worthless, because he had just arrived to Cyprus, and he knew nothing.
Still he satrt talking, andthis was the part of the chapter who intrested me the most. He started talking, and telling them how he understood their situation, and how hard it would be. It is very intresting, because he starts to be empathetic with this people, so you understand the situation they are in. "There are always dark clouds and we can never knowwhen and where these clouds will produce a deluge." Pg.207 In this quotation, we realize that Kapuscinski spells some supportive words. "I have seen so misfortune in my life and here I see more." Pg 2007 When he says this, I think people have a connection with him. He explains how these people are living, but the most amaizing part is how he describes, the way the feel. This description, makes you feel it somehow.
I think that after seeing the devastating life these people where going through, Kapuscinski realized that there would´nt be any paradise.
