A twenty-year-old young woman first stepped foot onto American soil, unable to speak a word of English. She felt nervous, frightened, and excited all at once.
An arranged marriage had brought her out of her beloved Cyprus, an island country in the Eastern Mediterranean, to Connecticut to meet her soon-to-be husband and his family.
Liberty Goetsch, now forty years later, recounts her home country, her years growing up there, family memories, and how her life has unfolded in America in her new book, Life, Liberty, and My Pursuit of Happiness, which was released this month.
In her book, Liberty details Cypriot culture and food, including a full section of delicious, regional recipes and gorgeous photographs she took herself.
Liberty has a book signing planned soon for family and friends to debut her book. The team of Writing Your Life would like to extend a sincere and heartfelt congratulations to Liberty for her hard work and accomplishment in publishing her memoir!
